EDITORS COMMENTS
The engraving titled "Siege Guns and Earthworks, Artillery Experiments at Eastbourne" captures a fascinating moment in history. The image showcases a defence battery equipped with siege guns and martello towers, as well as various batteries and earthworks strategically placed along the coast. In this detailed illustration from the 19th century, we witness artillery experiments taking place at Eastbourne. The scene is filled with activity as soldiers maneuver around the area, testing different techniques and materials to enhance their coastal defences. One notable element depicted in the print is a traction engine used to transport heavy weaponry across difficult terrain. We also see an interesting dummy attachment on one of the platforms, suggesting that innovative methods were employed to confuse enemy forces. The engraving highlights both practicality and ingenuity by showcasing inclined planks used as temporary expedients for carrying heavy ammunition. This clever solution allowed for efficient transportation of large guns such as the 64 pounder gun and 46 cwt howitzer. Overall, this artwork provides us with a glimpse into historical artillery experiments conducted at Eastbourne. It serves as a testament to human resourcefulness in times of conflict, reminding us of our constant pursuit for improved defence strategies.
