The cannon is a war trophy captured from the Russians in Sevastopol in 1885 during the Crimean war.

Hiking

A fascinating piece of history tucked into the Berwick walls. The Crimean cannon, captured during the Crimean War, is an impressive reminder of Victorian military power and makes a great stop as you walk the walls. The plaque explains its story, and the setting. Well worth pausing here for a photo and a bit of history.
