Copthorne Barracks was a British Army military installation in Copthorne, a suburb of Shrewsbury in Shropshire, England.
The barracks were built between 1877 and 1881 and initially included a hospital, married quarters, stabling and stores. Their creation took place as part of the Cardwell Reforms which encouraged the localisation of British military forces. The barracks became the depot for the 43rd Regiment of Foot and the 53rd Regiment of Foot. Following the Childers Reforms, the 53rd Regiment of Foot amalgamated with the 85th Regiment of Foot to form the King's Shropshire Light Infantry with its depot in the barracks in 1881.
