Sorry, can't add anything to this one as CWGC doesn't mention his Company. Dbf has posted a fair amount on Boulogne though that should turn up in searches if anyone is interested.

A quick search in one of my books says No.5 Group were at Boulogne. I'd be surprised if all of the companies were at Boulogne during the dates above but 5 Group consisted of No.'s 47, 49, 59, 62, 68, 76, 81 and 102 Companies consisting of around 2,000 men
