contents The aim of this paper is to develop a refined error estimate of L1/finite element scheme for a reaction-subdiffusion equation with constant delay $τ$ and uniform time mesh. Under the non-uniform multi-singularity assumption of exact solution in time, the local truncation errors of the L1 scheme with uniform mesh is investigated. Then we introduce a fully discrete finite element scheme of the considered problem. Next, a novel discrete fractional Grönwall inequality with constant delay term is proposed, which does not include the increasing Mittag-Leffler function comparing with some popular other cases. By applying this Grönwall inequality, we obtain the pointwise-in-time and piecewise-in-time error estimates of the finite element scheme without the Mittag-Leffler function. In particular, the latter shows that, for the considered interval $((i-1)τ,iτ]$, although the convergence in time is low for $i=1$, it will be improved as the increasing $i$, which is consistent with the factual assumption that the smoothness of the solution will be improved as the increasing $i$. Finally, we present some numerical tests to verify the developed theory.
