The New South Wales Artillery was an artillery unit of the Colony of New South Wales which was raised on 1 August 1871.

During 1876, a second permanent artillery battery was established, and another added in 1877.

The battery served in the Sudan Campaign but saw only limited action as the war was near its end when it arrived.

In 1899, No.2 battery was renamed "A" Battery, Royal Australian Artillery and is still in existence in the order of the Australian Army.

The 113 Troop, Royal Australian Artillery is descended from this battery.
