St George's Barracks, Sutton Coldfield

St George's Barracks, Sutton Coldfield was a military installation in Sutton Coldfield.

Originally built in 1942 as the home of 216 Maintenance Unit RAF,[1] the site was renamed St George's Barracks and became the regional centre for infantry training as the Fusilier Brigade Depot in 1960.

[3] The Army personnel selection centre closed in early summer 1994 and most of the land was later sold off for housing.

[4] The Defence Infrastructure Organisation still remains in offices at St George's House.
