On 1 January 1982, 15 Infantry Brigade was reformed at Topcliffe in North Yorkshire as part of the Army restructuring plan and with 24 and 49 Infantry Brigades on 1 January 1983 constituted 2nd Infantry Division. This Division had a NATO role and acted as the
reinforcement division for 1st British Corps. The Brigade Headquarters moved from Topcliffe to Imphal Barracks in York in November 1992. Following the Government’s Strategic Defence Review in 1998 the Brigade was retitled 15 (North East) Brigade. On the 1 December 2014 the Brigade was merged with 4th (Mechanized) Brigade to form Headquarters 4th Infantry Brigade and Headquarters North East based at Catterick Garrison. Marc
