Gun at Middle Head Port Jackson NSW

  I hoped this was the same gun as in a Phillips Collection (PhM) photo, but it isn't. Gun expert required!

• Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:

  beachcomber australia Not the same gun but a great comparison nonetheless. What interesting contraptions...

• Doug Richards said:

  I doubt that this gun was at Middle Head, as the Middle Head guns are quie well docume ted. More likely to be at South Head. See www.panoramio.com/photo_explorer#view=photo&position=... note that the way the gun is now mounted at South Head the carriage is back to front.

• Doug Richards said:

  Other possibility: this gun is a 9in 12 ton RML at Georges Heights (Not 'Middle Head')

Heavy Gun Machine Shop, Elswick Works

from North East Museums

• optimal chicken said:

  Incredible. So much going on in such a small cramped space. The guns required absolute precision and he achieved it. Armstrong was famous for work the world over.

• stereotopie said:

  Bad theme but looks very cool and oldschool

  Am I seeing electric lamps? See note.

• CASSIDY PHOTOGRAPHY said:

  "No dogs will dine here by God!" Or, do you mean, no dogs on the menu, here? Or, were you referring to English?

• oaktree_brian_1976 said:

  Large British flag with a crest in the middle of it, other one looks like a variation on the Red Ensign along the left wall. Flag from a unit at Waterloo? See on the left of these flags www.warflag.com/napflags/flaghtml/britKGL.htm

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  CASSIDY PHOTOGRAPHY - I think Morning Mary was referring to the likelihood that the usual morning past-time (the dog hunt) would be fruitless today. (At least, as you say, if we didn't include any mystery meat from the menu...) Niall McAuley - Thanks for the "today" shot. I wonder where all the weapons went.... oaktree_brian_1976 - Any flags that you can see that might help refine the date range a little? Though maybe beachcomber australia is onto something with the lighting...
