Regimental Museums
The Royal Lincolnshire Regiment
The Regimental Museum is housed within the Museum of Lincolnshire Life, The Old Barracks, Burton Road, Lincoln, Lincolnshire, LN1 3LY (Tel: 01522 552899).
Barracks of the Loyal North Lincoln Militia
Fittingly, the building that this Museum resides in, was once the City Barracks. The Architect was Henry Goddard, who was the County Surveyor at that time. It was built in 1857, as a Barracks, Armoury and Store for the Loyal North Lincoln Militia.
The Officers accommodation was within the Barracks. Other ranks lived in nearby Mill Road. These blocks of houses were designed with divided living space for families on the ground floor. The single men slept in a long continuous dormitory on the first floor. The first floors were separated when the houses were no longer required for military personnel.
