'''Arm''' is a special type used to group together the British infantry, cavalry and artillery. [[British Infantry Arm]] and [[British Cavalry Arm]] had no administrative role but were part of the legal definition of the British Army given in the ''Manual of Military Law''. The [[Royal Artillery, UK|Royal Artillery]] had some administrative role but was split into two [[corps (administrative)|administrative corps]]:

* [[Royal Horse Artillery and Royal Field Artillery, UK|Royal Horse Artillery and Royal Field Artillery]]
* [[Royal Garrison Artillery, UK|Royal Garrison Artillery]]

Outside the infantry, cavalry and artillery, each combat arm of the British Army was an [[corps (administrative)|administrative corps]] in its own right, so the arm level isn't represented by unit pages on this site. They will be listed along with the above arms in [[:Category:Arms of the British Army]].

Some administrative corps were conventionally classed as services, not arms, because they did not have a direct combat role. These are listed in [[:Category:Services of the British Army]]
