Swanton Morley HIVE
Community Centre
Robertson Barracks

Norfolk NR20 4TX
 

Swanton Morley is home to The Light Dragoons, 12 Medical Sqn., Band of the Dragoon Guards and all attached personnel. All Service Families Accommodation is behind the wire. The camp is one of the most modern within the Army estate, and we are fortunate to have some of the best facilities at our disposal. The Community Centre is considered to be one of the best in Brigade, and is always looking for new initiatives to improve the service provided. The Centre can provide you with a host of organisations to help you in a multitude of ways. The Centre is also home to the HIVE, which is linked to many outside information providers. The Salvation Army Red Shield Services Café is well established and running a valuable and competitive service and is an ideal spot to meet new neighbours.

Within the wire there is a fully equipped gymnasium that is open to all personnel and dependants above the age of 16 on the proviso that a basic induction course (how to operate the equipment) is sought from one of the Physical Training Instructors first.  There is also an Astro turf, Tennis Courts and sports field. There is an Officers Mess, Sgts Mess, Cpls Mess, Sports Bar and NAAFI Bar and Spa Shop (with cash point facility). A large Community Centre is home to the Welfare Team, HIVE, Internet Access, and the Red Shield (Salvation Army) Café. A mobile library visits the barracks every 2nd week.
