The drill hall first appears on the 3rd epoch map (surveyed 1913), behind the County Buildings. Osborne (2006) reports it as having been built 1910-11 and demolished in the 1930s. In 1914 it was the drill station for "D" Squadron, Lothian & Borders Horse, and was the HQ of the 10th [Cyclist] Battalion, Royal Scots, and the base for "A" Company of that unit.
