18 Pounder field gun

[Rlangham]

Over the past few days I saw no less than six 18 pounder field guns (seven including the Martin Perry mid-war conversion), the most numerous gun in the Royal Artillery's arsenal in the Great War. Apart from the seven seen during the week, and the one at the Muckleburgh Collection, Norfolk, are there any more in the country?

 

The first three are at the Royal Artillery Museum, Woolwich, which has a great collection of WW1 era artillery

There is one in Norfolk at the tank museum there. I quite fancy one, but couldnt cope with all that polishing necessary to keep it clean.
