Cannons Galore

In order to give you some idea of the size of some of these cannons the one depicted in the header picture here is 72 inches from the ground. I would also be very interested if anyone has or is going to attempt a build of one of these. I am unable to provide the exact age of these cannons but I believe it falls between 1800 - 1900 as some do have dates on them.

I have been building model kits since the early 70’s starting with Airfix kits of mostly aircraft, then progressing to the point I am at now building predominantly armour kits from all countries and time periods.

Hi Darren, I bet this was highly decoratively painted in it's original form, would have been pretty fancy most probably. Nice one. Al

I find the cannon pictured in the header very interesting as it has Jewish, Arabic, and Indian symbols on it.

Larkhill Jon, I don't believe there is much left at Woolwich but I could be wrong.
