This is a list of British Army installations in the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, and overseas. This list does not include Army Reserve centres or drill halls.

Background

[edit]

Under the Army Basing Programme, announced in 2013, more than 100 army units relocated, disbanded, reconfigured or re-roled as part of the government's commitment to bring all units back from Germany by 2020.[1] The programme focused on personnel being increasingly concentrated around Salisbury Plain, Cottesmore, Aldershot, Colchester, Stafford and Catterick, the largest British Army garrison in the world.[2]

In February 2020, the British Army relinquished control of Catterick Barracks, Bielefeld, the last remaining headquarters for British Forces Germany, following 75 years in the country, marking the end of the Army Basing Programme and Operation Owl, and the return of 20,000 British troops.[3]

The British Army retains a presence at a small number of installations primarily in the North Rhine-Westphalia area of Germany as part of what is now known as British Army Germany.[4]

As part of the government's Better Defence Estate strategy, announced in Nov 2016, the Army plans to, over a period of 25 years, close down and dispose of numerous bases in the UK. This more efficient approach "co-locates people and capabilities in sustainable locations around centres of mass," and also releases land for up to 55,000 new homes.[15]

Germany

[edit]

In 2010 approximately 25,000 British soldiers were permanently based in western Germany, a legacy of World War II and the Cold War. Facilities in Germany are no longer strategically useful, therefore British Forces began withdrawing from Germany in 2010; in 2015 21,500 troops remained in the country.[330] The deployment had been phased out by 2020, although concentrations of installations and troops in the Mönchengladbach / Paderborn area will remain.[331]
