Here the completely raw militia were exercised as part of a division alongside regular troops while providing a reserve in case of French invasion of South East England. Afterwards, the regiment was sent to the usual winter quarters, spread out amongst inns over several towns and villages. The regiment was ordered to enlarge these quarters, even though Col Cooke complained that his men were already so dispersed that he could not be held responsible for their discipline and 'oeconomy' (internal economy). He had 32 men absent with leave because there were no quarters for them, 40 could not be given medical care, and one detachment had to march in from 3–4 miles (4.8–6.4 km) away every time there was a parade.
