This Unit of Royal Engineers was a Territorial Army Field Company, originally headquartered in Sunderland.

The War Diary was completed in manuscript and it has not always proved possible to completely interpret the text. Question marks have been inserted where works are unclear. The Enlistment Books for the Corps of Royal Engineers were destroyed when the Corps Museum was unable to accept them and therefore it has not proved possible to trace the service history of the men who served in Engineer Units attached to the 70th Infantry Brigade. Where names of servicemen have been able to be traced or have been extracted from the text of the War Diary they are listed below. At this stage the full supporting information on these men is not accessible but where facts have been able to be found, they have been included on their personal pages. It is hoped that family members will contact us with details of their backgrounds.
