HistoryEastney Barracks, designed by William Scamp (assistant director, Admiralty Works Department), was built as headquarters for the Royal Marine Artillery, who moved in from Fort Cumberland in 1867.[1] After the amalgamation of the Royal Marine Light Infantry and Royal Marine Artillery in 1923, Forton Barracks was closed and Eastney Barracks served as headquarters for the Portsmouth Division of the Corps. The series of seven linked blocks facing the sea forms the second longest barracks frontage in the country (after the Royal Artillery Barracks, Woolwich).[2] The ensemble has been called "the best and most complete barracks of the post-Crimean War period".[3] Eastney Barracks remained the Corps Headquarters until 1995, when it was sold and converted to private housing.[4] The Royal Marines Museum, established there in 1958, was accommodated in the former officers' mess at Eastney Barracks from 1972 to 2017.[5] Local folklore and legendThe Barracks are reportedly home to two ghosts. One is a young girl, seen around the main steps to the entry, who according to local legend was crushed to death when she ran in front of a horse-drawn carriage. The other is the smell of burning and a depressing atmosphere, experienced by staff in the attic, which has been linked to the local legend of a 19th-century officer called Colonel Wolf who burnt his love letters and shot himself there after the end of a love affair.[6] It was therefore the location for an episode of the Antix Productions series Most Haunted Live! broadcast on 7 May 2006 as part of its Panic In Portsmouth strand, which included episodes from Wymering Manor and Southsea Castle.[7] GalleryListed buildingsOther structuresReferences1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.memorials.inportsmouth.co.uk/rm-museum/commandants.htm |title=Royal Marines Museum - Commandants of the Royal Marines Portsmouth Division |publisher=Memorials in Portsmouth |accessdate=28 May 2016 |deadurl=unfit |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20141006123038/http://www.memorials.inportsmouth.co.uk/rm-museum/commandants.htm |archivedate=October 6, 2014 }} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-474503-bamford-house-dowell-house-finch-house-h|title=Bamford House, Dowell House, Finch House, Halliday House Former Long Barracks and Screen Walls to E, Portsmouth|publisher=British Listed Buildings|accessdate=28 May 2016}} 3. ^{{cite book|last=Pevsner|first=N|title=The Buildings of England: Hampshire and the Isle of Wight|publisher=Yale University Press|year=2002|isbn=978-0300096064}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.portsmouthsociety.org.uk/docs1995/nlaug95.pdf|title=Inland Planning|publisher=Portsmouth Society News|date=August 1995|accessdate=22 May 2016}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/news/defence/royal-marines-museum-to-be-moved-to-new-home-in-portsmouth-historic-dockyard-1-5596746|title=Royal Marines Museum to be moved to new home in Portsmouth Historic Dockyard|publisher=Portsmouth News|date=17 October 2013|accessdate=22 May 2016}} 6. ^{{cite book|title=Paranormal Hampshire|author=Scanlan, David|publisher=Amberley Publishing|year=2013|isbn=978-1848682573}} 7. ^{{IMDb title|id=0362355|title=Most Haunted Live!}} 8. ^[https://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101387086-former-guardroom-marine-gatethe-gatehouse-eastney-and-craneswater-ward#.WhLwKUx2vD4 Listed building entry] 9. ^[https://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101387048-former-clock-tower-and-offices-marine-gatethe-armoury-the-drill-house-and-the-clocktowerthe-colonnades-eastney-and-craneswater-ward#.WhLluEx2vD4 Listed building entry] 10. ^[https://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101387089-main-gate-and-perimeter-walls-marine-gate-eastney-and-craneswater-ward#.WhLw80x2vD4 Listed building entry] 11. ^[https://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101387085-former-eastney-house-linking-archway-and-railingsteapot-row-eastney-and-craneswater-ward#.WhLtvkx2vD4 Listed building entry] 12. ^[https://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101387087-bamford-house-dowell-house-finch-house-halliday-houseformer-long-barracks-and-screen-walls-to-east-and-west-marine-gateharvey-house-prettyjohn-house-wilkinson-house-eastney-and-craneswater-ward#.WhLx6Ux2vD4 Listed building entry] 13. ^[https://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101387090-the-royal-marines-museum-eastney-and-craneswater-ward Listed building entry] 14. ^[https://www.portsmouth.gov.uk/ext/documents-external/dev-cons-area-26-guidlines-standrews-church.pdf Conservation are report] Publications
