Gateway, Offices And Guard House, With Walled Exercise Yard, Horseshoe Barracks

Gatehouse with clock tower, former regimental offices, and guard room, built in 1856. The structure is of stock brick, laid partly in rusticated bands, with a hipped slate roof to the left (south-east) part and a flat roof to the right (north-west) part. It comprises a 3-arched gateway with a clock tower and lantern, flanked by single-storey ranges. A tall, central round-headed arch, with rusticated brick voussoirs projecting forward, is flanked by smaller arches, also with rusticated voussoirs. The central part has a brick cornice beneath a 4-faced clock tower with recessed corner pilasters, surmounted by a lantern with a modillion cornice and a pyramidal slate roof. The monumental arch is flanked by 3-bay arcades fronting the single-storey ranges, which have glazing-bar sash windows. The interior of the guard room (right part) retains a corridor with 3 small, unlit cells and two groups of 5 larger cells, some with wooden beds. An end door leads to a walled exercise yard.
