Description

The annotations detailing buildings for demolition are presumably post Second World War additions. Richard Linzey in 'Fortress Falmouth' (E13 page 121) mentions that the Regimental Institute was demolished in the 1950s by the Ministry of Works whereas it is highlighted on the plan as being demolished by the War Department.
