Tower of London Artillery

yesterday, due to it being the school holidays, we took a trip to the big smoke to see the Tower of London where I took a few pictures of various artillery pieces there. Above is a Russian gun on garrison carriage taken as a prize after the Crimean War.

Above we have a British 19th century 24pdr cannon on garrison carriage. next, below, a couple of shots of a British napoleonic 6pdr field gun with the axle boxes clearly shown.



The next piece, sitting outside the Tower is a bronze 24 pdr gun and plaque describing the piece.


Now more napoleonic pieces, this time French 6pdr field guns, is this the colour we should be achieving on our wargaming models?


last but not least a more up to date 25 pdr field gun.



I wanted to get some shots of Henry VIII's armour and weapons but photography was not allowed.
