Default 1/4 Royal Scots (Territorial Force)

I have just learned one of my Great Uncles served in this Regiment during World War One and was with them in France during the summer of 1918. He was a Corporal serving as an Acting Sgt.

Can someone clarify for me: (a) How to interpret the "1/4" (I think it defines the relationship between Btn and Rgt) and (b) what a Territorial Force was in the British Army.

This particular relative was born and spent his life in Scotland.

Thanks,


David
