The Royal Garrison Artillery operated larger and less mobile guns than the Field Artillery and the Siege Batteries operated the largest guns and howitzers. These were either mounted on concrete emplacements or on railway carriages and consequently they usually remained in the same sector of the line for long periods, coming under the orders of a Heavy Artillery Group. The 4th Siege Battery went to France on 17th September, 1914 but as yet there is no information concerning the death of Arthur Goble on 12th November. |
