Description
The Drill Hall on Easdale Island is a former drill hall built in the mid-19th century. It is a single-storey building with a square plan and a pyramidal roof, constructed from slate and whinstone coursers.
The northwest elevation features a broad rectangular entrance at the center. The southeast elevation is obscured by an adjoining building, as is the far right of the northeast elevation. The southwest elevation is blank. The roof has boarded rooflights and is primarily covered with felt roofing tiles, with some slates on the northwest side and lead flashing. The interior was not seen in 2001.
