The Cantonment was situated 3 miles east of the civil station of Lahore and until 1906 was known as Mian Mir (alternative spelling Mean Meer, Meean Meer). This link,[1] gives a description of Meean Meer c 1868, while this link[2] mentions the clean up and change of name to Lahore Cantonments.

Prior to the establishment of Mian Mir, and perhaps concurrently with it, there was a a cantonment at Anarkali (Anarkili, Anarkullie, Annarkullie).

Lahore was the head-quarters of the Punjab Light Horse and of the 1st Punjab Volunteer Rifles.[3] "A Beleaguered City" (kiplingsociety.co.uk), is a parody by Rudyard Kipling about the proximity of the firing range of the Punjab Volunteer Rifles to the Lawrence Hall Gardens.
