HistoryThe building was designed as the headquarters of the 37th Lancashire Rifle Volunteers and completed in 1873.[1][2] This unit evolved into the 4th Battalion the King's Own Royal Regiment (Lancaster) in 1908.[1] The battalion was mobilised at the drill hall in August 1914 before being deployed to the Western Front.[3] The battalion was disbanded shortly before the Second World War and the drill hall was made available for recreational use.[4] It is now the Red Rose Social and Recreation Centre.[5] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url= https://www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1435378|title=Former drill hall including sergeant's house, administration and entrance blocks and boundary walling|publisher=Historic England|accessdate=5 July 2017}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://forebears.co.uk/england/lancashire/ulverston|title= Kelly's Directory of Lancashire (1905)|publisher=|accessdate=5 July 2017}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.1914-1918.net/kingsown.htm|title=The King's Own (Royal Lancaster Regiment)|publisher=The Long, Long Trail|accessdate=31 May 2016}} 4. ^{{cite web|url= https://web.archive.org/web/20060104054136/http://www.regiments.org/regiments/uk/inf/004KORR.htm|title= The King's Own Royal Regiment (Lancaster)|publisher=Regiments.org|accessdate=5 July 2017}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.thecumbriadirectory.com/Business/business_result.php?business_type=Clubs%20and%20Associations&town=Ulverston&url=|title=Clubs and Associations in Ulverston|publisher=The Cumbria Directory| date=5 July 2017}} 3 : Drill halls in England|Buildings and structures in Cumbria|Ulverston |
