High Wycombe

I had an ancestor in the Oxford and Bucks Light Infantry and he was based in a Barracks in High 'Wycombe. Does anyone know the name of these barracks.

When I grew up in High Wycombe, Barracks Rd was still housing the local Territorial Army.  It was west of the town centre off Suffield Rd.
