1901-1910 British Edward VII 4th Volunteer Battalion Cheshire Regiment 1897 Pattern Infantry Officer’s Sword With Blued & Etched Blade By Hobson & Sons London & Scabbard. Sn 22426:56 -. The Cheshire Regiment was a line infantry regiment of the British Army, part of the Prince of Wales’ Division. The 22nd Regiment of Foot was raised by the Duke of Norfolk in 1689 and was able to boast an independent existence of over 300 years. The 4th Volunteer Battalion was formed in 1860.
