Alterations
In 1913, Monarch was slated as part of the twelve ship order to receive a director along the lines of that developed in Neptune. She was fully equipped sometime in 1914 prior to the start of the war.[3]
By the end of 1915, and probably during 1915, she received one of the first three sets of Walker's Instruments, presumably for trial.[4]
