Longcross Barracks closed in 2000. Nearby was a military test/research site but they weren’t directly associated with the barracks.
Not a very interesting explore, this one. Just a few buildings, all stripped out. I imagine it is a bit like exploring an old TravelLodge or something.

This place was ok, was posted here three times. Foned memories, sad to see it as it is as I had to sweep the bloody leaves away when I was in the shit. Drove pased it the other day and thought of of the others that I worked there. Left in 1995 for a new trade but this place will be always in my mind. hope Barrowhills officers mess is still there if not with the army.
i was there for a couple of years, had great times. shame to see the place in such a state but brings back so many memories. r.i.p longcross barracks
Hi Danni!! I was there the same time as you I think!! Worked for MGS in the Guard room. Too right about the good times there though. Great place!! Sad to see it in its present state. Hope all is well.

Hi everyone
I lived in the officers mess for a few years I was the mess SGT. then I moved down to the SGT mess and was the Admin SGT for a few years before I left in early 80s . The swing that is still on the big tree out the back of the sgt mess was put there by a SGT Bill Hamilton for me one Sunday afternoon after we had watched Gone with the wind . At the time my name was SGT Garbutt. I too had some fantastic times there

Hi-I was the NAAFI manager there for a couple of years in the mid 80’s.. Loved it..really sad to see the state of the place now… I was only 20 at the time and remeber some wild times there.
This is so weird, I lived at 1 Albury for 6 years from 2002, I remember exploring these barracks with my brother and his mates…great memories
