History
The Peshawar Cantonment was established on the remains of old town site and the graveyard. It was as irregular and oblong in shape as it is today and originally occupied an area of 09 square kilometers. It was occupied by British troops soon after the British annexation of Punjab in 1848–49. After the fall of the Sikh Empire in 1849 and annexation of Punjab to the British Empire, a Military Garrison was established at Peshawar in 1868 by the British colonial authorities on the remains of old town site and ancient grave yards. Peshawar Cantonment now covers an area of 13.64 Sq. Kilometers and is currently under the control of the Pakistan Army.[3]
