The Bethel Street drill hall is a former military installation in Norwich, Norfolk. It is a Grade II* listed building.

History

The building, which has a 15th century undercroft, was completed in the late 19th century.[1] It became the headquarters of the 2nd East Anglian Field Ambulance Royal Army Medical Corps[2] and, probably, of the 1st Volunteer Battalion, the Norfolk Regiment as well around that time.[3] The 1st Volunteer Battalion, the Norfolk Regiment, who simply gave their address as "St Giles" (the road behind is St Giles Street),[4] evolved to become the 4th Battalion, the Norfolk Regiment in 1908.[3] The battalion was mobilised at St Giles[4] before being deployed to Gallipoli and then to Egypt and Palestine.[5] The battalion then moved to the Chapel Field Road drill hall (since demolished) later in the war.[3] The Bethel Street properties were subsequently decommissioned and the premises at the front are now used as commercial offices by the Greenhouse Trust.[6]
