Waterloo Lines
Waterloo Lines, formerly known as the Land Warfare Centre, is a British Army barracks on Imber Road in Warminster, Wiltshire. It is currently home to a number of Army specialist training schools and a sizeable portion of the Headquarters Field Army, not to be confused with Army HQ in Andover.History
Waterloo Lines has its origins in the Battle School established near Barnard Castle in County Durham in 1941: it moved to Warminster in 1945 and was known as the School of Infantry until it was renamed the Land Warfare Centre in 1988.
The site is also home to the Specialist Weapons School; the headquarters of the Small Arms School Corps, which trains infantry weapon trainers; and Headquarters Infantry, which was formed in 1996 and is responsible for the recruiting, manning and training policy of the Infantry.
A unit of the Brigade of Gurkhas, Gurkha Company, is based at Waterloo Lines to provide realistic OPFOR training.
