Dunbar, New Inn Cavalry Barracks is depicted on the Ordnance Survey 2nd Edition map (Haddingtonshire, sheet VII.9, 1907). The barracks was clearly still in existence in 1929, when a plan was prepared (SRO 'Map, castle Park Barracks and New Inn Barracks. Skeleton record Plan B18/20/32).
It is not known what the building was used for in 1914. The main building, formerly, The New Inn, still stands and the War Office boundary stones are clearly visible.
Modern satellite photography suggests that parts of the western portion of the structure may survive.
