As has been stated previously, the regimental marches of the new regiment are

March Quick - Men of Harlech
Slow March - Forth to the Battle

Regimental Records Volume II 1816-1914 states “The following are the airs used by the Royal Welch Fusiliers:"

March Past (in column) … British Grenadiers
March Past (in quarter column) … Men of Harlech
On entering or leaving barracks or camp … Men of Harlech

There is also reference to the official regimental march being ‘Men of Harlech’. The following memorandum was issued on 19.8.1835. “All Grenadier and Fusilier Regiments (including the 5th Foot now dressed as Grenadiers) are, when marching in quick time upon occasions of Guard Mounting Parade, or Review, to march by to the Grenadiers March, and no regiment whatever is on any of these occasions to march to a foreign tune”

Further research shows that the British Grenadiers was a marching song for the grenadier units of the British military from the 17th Century to the 19th Century. It is the now the Regimental Quick March of the Grenadier Guards, one of the five Foot Guards regiments of the Queen's Household Division, as well as the Honourable Artillery Company and the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers. It is also an authorized march of The Royal Gibraltar Regiment, The Royal Regiment of Canadian Artillery, The Canadian Grenadier Guards, The Royal Regiment of Canada, The Princess Louise Fusiliers, and The 5th Canadian Mounted Rifles.
