Today we have been examining the #SSEastfield gun - we like a challenge and this is up there! It's a real mishmash -a French 90 mm 1877 cannon from land married to a 1905 Hotchkiss quick firing gun mount with a recoil system added in 1917. It will need a lot of conservation @bumaritime.bsky.social

We can also do bling. Here is a fabulous whistle from #RMSMedina (see also previous) torpedoed in 1917. @bournemouthuni.bsky.social
