2002 found me Feeling Nostalgic I revisited Malta and St Andrews Barracks.
Home to 41 Commando Group Royal Marines

My Home from Nov 75 - May 77 I must admit I was surprised that little had been done with the barracks since hearing it was turned into a holiday camp...  Whilst the ranges and whole area had been developed and there was a new village there the barracks buildings remained un-used or simply had a family occupying the building (HQ Block and the Welfare and Cpl's Club)
Here is what I saw...

     
 


This is all that remains of the 41 Club (NAAFI)
completely gutted both me and the building

 
     
 


View from the path of the NAAFI looking onto the parade square and what was the HQ Building
(Top Floor) and Easy Echo Company Lines (Ground Floor) with the Clock Tower and
Guard Room far right

 
     
 


Same as above but with the Signals Classroom on the Left

 
     
 


The Signals Store and Troop Office, This is where I paraded most days -
I do not recall the tree being there...

 
     
 


Well this was my Grot Top Left as you look at the building - now partly converted into
Holiday flats though abandoned some time ago - There was still evidence of spilt
Yellow paint on the balcony (that's another story)

 
     
 


The Cinema with it's roof caved in completely gutted. the road used to go onto MT park.

 
     
 


This shot shows the QM's area to the left is where the Cinema is in the previous picture. All empty.
