LF. I haven't found 4 Div. Signals on Ancestry but 4th Div. RE only refers to the 7th. & 9th. Coys. from what I've seen so far.

Diaries - Royal Engineers - 4th Div (above 50th!!!) - piece 1471 1-6 at the bottom.
I am Zoe Northeast, granddaughter of Maximilian Double.
 
It is with great difficulty I share with you that in the early hours of 07 August 2021, Maximilian passed away unexpectedly but peacefully.

With deep sadness,
Zoe

Nothing of note in the 4th. Div. HQ. diaries.
For the RE Signals you found there is this entry:
10/2/18 Riding school commenced at transport lines for Sappers & Drivers.
This continued until around mid March then nothing about where the men went except about a week later it says that the Signals school was closed & the men went back to their units.
There was a wireless school running along side it but not sure which it refers to.
That only leaves 10 & 11 Bde. diaries.
