Nightingale Barracks was built at the same time as the British Military Hospital, and provided accommodation for the Nursing staff. The barracks was also home to the hospital Quarter Master and a small NAAFI shop. Only one of the accommodation blocks remains today, the others were destroyed in 2000 (Georgiou & Soteris). Nightingale barracks was also home to the Nightingale Club which was the junior ranks bar until it was closed in 2001.
