HistoryThe barracks were designed by Lawrence Booth as the headquarters of the 5th (Ardwick) Volunteer Battalion, The Manchester Regiment; they were completed in 1886 and opened by Prince George, Duke of Cambridge, Commander-in-Chief of the Forces in September 1887.[1] The 5th (Ardwick) Volunteer Battalion evolved to become the 8th battalion the Manchester Regiment in 1908.[2] The battalion was mobilised at the drill hall in August 1914 before being deployed to Gallipoli and ultimately to the Western Front.[3][4] During the Second World War, the barracks were used a detention centre for deserters. After the War the barracks were restored to use as the headquarters of 8th battalion of the Manchester Regiment.[5] They became home to the Manchester Regiment (Ardwick and Ashton) Territorials in 1967 and then became base to C Company of 5th/8th (Volunteer) Battalion of the King's Regiment in 1971.[5] This unit evolved to become C (King's) Company of the King's and Cheshire Regiment, still based at Ardwick Green, in 1999.[5] Since 2006, the barracks have been home of D (Inkerman) Company of the 4th Battalion of the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment.[6] See also{{portal|Greater Manchester}}
