Siege Batteries of the Royal Garrison Artillery

This page contains a list of all of the RGA Siege Batteries that proceeded overseas.

Research tips

For details of the movements and locations of a battery, see if they have a war diary at RGA War Diaries

Then see which higher commands they were allocated to in Allocations of Siege Batteries to higher commands. This is essential for those batteries which are listed as “personnel only” when going overseas.

Then examine the war diaries of those commands.

Sometimes, an accurate date of landing in France can be obtained from the war diary of the Le Havre Base.
