Sobraon Barracks

Sobraon Barracks is a former military installation in Lincoln, England.

History
The "old barracks" in Burton Road, Lincoln, were constructed in 1857 and are now home to the Museum of Lincolnshire Life.

In 1890 the "new barracks" were built in the Fortress Gothic Revival Style to the north of the old barracks on Burton Road: the new barracks became the home of the Royal Lincolnshire Regiment. In 1953 the new barracks were renamed "Sobraon Barracks" after the Battle of Sobraon, a confrontation which had taken place during the First Anglo-Sikh War.

Large parts of Sobraon Barracks were demolished in the 1970s although the keep still remains and is still used as an Army Reserve Centre by Lincolnshire Army Cadet Force. In March 2014 it was announced that 160 (Lincoln) Squadron Royal Logistic Corps would be based at Sobraon Barracks.
