Old Photograph Gordon Barracks Bridge Of Don Aberdeen Scotland
Old photograph of Gordon Barracks at Bridge Of Don, Aberdeen, Scotland. The barrack buildings, which were built by J and W Wittet between 1933 and 1935, are located around the barrack square. The barracks became the depot of the Gordon Highlanders as soon as they opened in 1935. Gordon Barracks are now used by a variety of organisations, including Territorial Army signals and medical units. The Gordon Highlanders was a line infantry regiment of the British Army that existed for 113 years, from 1881 until 1994 when it was amalgamated with the Queen's Own Highlanders, Seaforth and Camerons, to form the Highlanders, Seaforth, Gordons and Camerons. Blog post of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
