List of knights bachelor appointed in 1904

Knight Bachelor is the oldest and lowest-ranking form of knighthood in the British honours system.[1] It is the rank granted to a man who has been knighted by the monarch but not inducted as a member of one of the organised orders of chivalry.[2] Women are not knighted. The closest equivalent award for a woman is appointment as Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire (founded in 1917).[3]

In 1904, 68 people were appointed Knights Bachelor.
