Surviving army records are held in the National Archives (TNA) at Kew. However, large numbers of those relating to soldiers who fought in WW1 were destroyed or badly damaged as a result of enemy bombing in WW2.

You should read TNA's research guide on the subject
http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/catalogue/RdLeaflet.asp?sLeafletID=18

Have you also tried the regimental museum?
