Carlton Barracks is a military installation in Leeds in West Yorkshire, England. ==History== The barracks were opened as a base for the 4th Battalion of the West Yorkshire Militia in 1865.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Carlton Street, Well Close Place, no 2 )〕 In 1887 the barracks were bought, with corps funds, to accommodate the 3rd Battalion the Prince of Wales (West Yorkshire) Regiment (The Rifles).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Leeds Rifles )〕 In 1908, the 3rd battalion became the 7th and 8th battalions; these new battalions were also based at Carlton Barracks.〔 At the start of the First World War so many men reported to Carlton Barracks in response to the call to arms that the War Office decided to form two second line battalions (2/7th and 2/8th, the original battalions becoming 1/7th and 1/8th).〔 After the Second World War the headquarters of 45th (Leeds Rifles) Royal Tank Regiment (TA) was established at the barracks〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The 45th and The 51st )〕 as was the headquarters of 269 Field Regiment Royal Artillery.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=266 - 288 Regiments 1947-67 )〕 The former regiment evolved to become the 7th (Leeds Rifles) battalion of the West Yorkshire Regiment, based at Carlton Barracks, and the latter regiment evolved to become a battery now known as 269 (West Riding) Battery Royal Artillery which is still based at the barracks.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=101 Regiment Royal Artillery )〕 Army Reserve units based at the barracks now include 269 (West Riding) Battery Royal Artillery and 49 (West Riding) Signal Squadron.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=49 (West Riding) Signal Squadron )〕 The barracks are also the home of the Yorkshire Officer Training Regiment〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Yorkshire )〕 and the local branch of the Army Cadet Force〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ACF: Yorkshire and North West )〕 as well as HMS ''Ceres'', Royal Naval Reserve〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=HMS Ceres )〕 and the Leeds Detachment of the Royal Marines Reserve Merseyside. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Carlton Barracks」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
