About: 7th County of London Brigade, Royal Field Artillery

The 7th London Brigade, Royal Field Artillery was a new unit formed when Britain's Territorial Force was created in 1908. Its origin lay in Artillery Volunteer Corps formed in West London in the 1860s, which had later been incorporated into a larger London unit. Together with its wartime duplicate it served on the Western Front, at Salonika and in Palestine during World War I. It formed several units for service in World War II, when they were in action in North Africa, Italy and North West Europe. The unit continued in the postwar Territorial Army until 1961.
