The name Barrackpore may have originated from the English word barracks, as it was the site of the first cantonment of the British East India Company. The name “Barbuckpur”, another name for Barrackpore, is associated with a Mahal in the Ain-e-Akbari. From the 17th century, the area was ruled over by a line of Zamindars based in Nona Chandanpukur, Barrackpore.  The first British barrack or cantonment in India was built in the town in 1772. After the British crown assumed direct control of India, the sprawling Government House and the Government Estate were built in Barrackpore to provide the viceroy with a suburban residence 20 kilometres (12 miles) outside of Calcutta. Two rebellions against British authority took place in Barrackpore in the 19th century.
