Post 1945

In 1947, the 42nd and 55th Divisions were amalgamated to form the 42nd (Lancashire) Division as part of the post-war Territorial Army but this was disbanded by 1968 with changes to the Territorial Army structure.

In the modern British Army the 42 North West Brigade has adopted the former 42nd (Lancashire) Division badge.
