Pill corps (corps number 911) is in the North Somerset area. The first hall was in Baltic Place, a former Methodist chapel. Baltic Place was prone to flooding, and a picture exists in John Rich's book "Pill in old picture postcards" which shows flood waters up to nearly the top of the steps of the Army hall.
In 1971 as part of the town's redevelopment, the corps moved into a purpose built hall in Heywood Road, with the officer's quarters above the hall. This hall is still used to this day.
