The Hutton Terrace drill hall is a former military installation in Jesmond, Newcastle upon Tyne.
The building was designed as a drill hall in the early 20th century[1] and became the headquarters of the 8th (Cyclist) Battalion, The Northumberland Fusiliers when that unit was renamed the Northern Cyclist Battalion in 1910.[2] The battalion was mobilised at the drill hall in August 1914 before moving to its pre-planned war station at Morpeth.[3] The drill hall was, at that time, also home to 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps.[4] The Northern Cyclist Battalion was absorbed into the 3rd (Northumbrian) Medium Brigade, Royal Garrison Artillery in 1920.[2] Prior to the Second World War, the headquarters of 149th (Northumberland) Infantry Brigade was based at the drill hall.[5] The building has since been redeveloped for residential use.[6]
