HistoryThe facility were originally built as a garrison hospital in 1680 and converted into a barracks in 1694.[1] The barracks were named after a type of wild cabbage which was prevalent in the local area.[2] The barracks were home to the Army Service Corps, responsible for supplies, transport and accommodation, during the First World War.[3] After the war, the barracks fell into disrepair and were demolished to make way for an expansion to Portsmouth Power Station in the late 1920s.[4] DescriptionThe barracks were described in the Chronicles of Portsmouth (1823) as: "...presenting a fine range of buildings, three stories high, having in front a parade-ground of large size, at one extremity of which is a building corresponding in style, formerly used as an armoury. In the front is a bold armorial sculpture of the English arms in alto relievo. Behind is a second space of ground with ranges of stabling; and on the opposite side, the apartments of the officers of the Royal Artillery. […] On the site of the barracks anciently stood a Conventual building dedicated to the Virgin Mary; and the large burial-ground called St. Mary's was the colewort or cabbage garden or close".[5] The aforementioned 'cabbage garden', which gave the barracks its name, was still in use as a burial-ground in the early 19th century, long after the conventual chapel of St Mary had been demolished.[6] References1. ^{{cite book|url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=3mbWDAAAQBAJ&pg=PT10&lpg=PT10&dq=Colewort+Barracks&source=bl&ots=3j7-Woe-6m&sig=xjDWAoAOy1W8ATFFSEAHqC4oEeI&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi2n43TkrzWAhWLJsAKHRjZBHs4ChDoAQguMAI#v=onepage&q=Colewort%20Barracks&f=false|title=Secret Portsmouth|first= Steve|last= Wallis|publisher=Amberley|year=2016|isbn=978-1445655161}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://historyinportsmouth.co.uk/places/gunwharf-gate.htm|title=Gunwaharf Gate|publisher=History in Portsmouth|accessdate=23 September 2017}} 3. ^{{cite book|url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=8O9DBgAAQBAJ&pg=PA29&lpg=PA29&dq=Colewort+Barracks&source=bl&ots=M7UecbPSS8&sig=rW3-PfWADd9SMAaWLp1Kj2RQKSk&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi2n43TkrzWAhWLJsAKHRjZBHs4ChDoAQg8MAU#v=onepage&q=Colewort%20Barracks&f=false|title=Portsmouth in the Great War|first= Sarah|last= Quail|page=29|publisher=Pen and Sword Military|year=2014|isbn=978-1473847804}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/our-region/portsmouth/old-portsmouth-map-leaves-residents-stumped-1-7538829|title=Old Portsmouth map leaves residents stumped|date=23 August 2016|publisher=The News|accessdate=23 September 2017}} 5. ^{{cite book |last1=Slight |first1=Henry & Julian |title=Chronicles of Portsmouth |date=1828 |publisher=Lupton Relfe |location=London}} 6. ^{{cite web |title=The liberty of Portsmouth and Portsea Island: Introduction |url=https://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/hants/vol3/pp172-192 |website=British History Online |publisher=Victoria County History 1908 |accessdate=6 February 2019}} 2 : Barracks in England|Installations of the British Army |
