From 1538 to 1658 , the HAC occupied and trained at the Old Artillery Ground in Spitalfields on the site of the outer precinct of the dissolved Priory and Hospital of St Mary Spital . In 1658 , following disputes over use of the Ground with the Gunners of the Tower , it moved to its current site south of the Bunhill Fields Burial Ground continuing to the south as far as Chiswell Street . This area is described in a map of the area of 1677 as the ' New Artillery Garden ' and has variously been referred to as the Artillery Ground and '' the Artillery Garden '' . This current site now falls in the London Borough of Islington , and is just north of the City of London , the main entrance being in City Road . During the aftermath of the 7 July 2005 London bombings on the London transport system , the Artillery Garden was used as a temporary mortuary
