Peninsula Barracks, Warrington
Peninsula Barracks is a military installation on O'Leary Street in Warrington, England.
==History==
The barracks were opened as Orford Barracks in 1878 and became the depot for both the King's Regiment (Liverpool) and for the South Lancashire Regiment. Their creation took place as part of the Cardwell Reforms which encouraged the localisation of British military forces.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Echoes of the past in these Army cuts )〕 The King's Regiment (Liverpool) moved out around 1910 leaving the barracks as the mobilisation point for the South Lancashire Regiment at the start of the First World War.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Litherland at War )〕
After the Second World War the barracks became the home of the 4th Battalion the South Lancashire Regiment (The Prince of Wales's Volunteers); although the regiment was disbanded in 1958 the battalion transferred to the Lancashire Regiment and continued to be based at the barracks.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=South Lancashire Regiment )〕 This battalion was reduced to company status in 1967 and that company transferred to the Queen's Lancashire Regiment in 1970.〔
In 1975 the barracks became the headquarters of 5th/8th (Volunteer) Battalion the King's Regiment〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=King's Regiment )〕 and in 1999 they became the home of B (Cheshire) Company of the King's and Cheshire Regiment.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=King's and Cheshire Regiment )〕 Since 2007 they have been the home of a squadron of 75 Engineer Regiment.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Warrington Timeline )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=75 Engineer Regiment )〕
