RobL Posted 30 September , 2014 Share Posted 30 September , 2014 Struggling to find information (or better yet photographs) of the British carriage of artillery pieces, especially in the UK. I assume it would be by flat (or single/two, maybe three at the most) plank wagons as long as there was entry wide enough to get them in, but do not have any evidence to support this. Especially interested in how the smaller pieces, ie 10 pounder mountain gun, 18 pounder, 4.5 inch howitzer etc Thanks, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KONDOA Posted 3 November , 2014 Share Posted 3 November , 2014 This may help. Taken at Hedon near Hull. http://1914-1918.invisionzone.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=213522#entry2114037 Roop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay dubaya Posted 3 November , 2014 Share Posted 3 November , 2014 Rob, appologies for not getting back sooner...I had forgotten. However, search as I may I can only find the following pic on my PC, which IIRR came from the Sheffield Archives and shows guns leaving the Vickers Works in the Don Valley. I'm sure I have more pics but these must be hard copies in books that are stored away at present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobL Posted 12 November , 2014 Author Share Posted 12 November , 2014 No problem, that's spot on - especially as it's larger pieces I'm struggling to find images for, thanks This may help. Taken at Hedon near Hull. http://1914-1918.invisionzone.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=213522#entry2114037 Roop Certainly does, thanks - I like the South Eastern & Chatham Railway wagon in the background, a long way from home!
