The artillery are the cannons of the 17th century, from small field pieces that would been seen in open battles, up to the battering siege guns that would reduce castle walls to rubble.
The Artillery
Castraties
Castraties is our main field gun. A bronze Drake that would fire a 6 pound ball. Placing it in the middling size of historical field pieces, but on the larger size for most re-enactment groups.
Castraties
(Ships Carriage)
Not all battles of the English Civil War were in open fields, so Castraties also has a ships carriage for mounting on city walls or onboard ships
Crackle
Crackle is one of a pair of wall pieces. Swivel mounted on a fast moving carriage, it can quickly get to a breach in a fortification and fire accurate hail shot on the attackers
Snap
Snap is our second wall piece. Mounted on an A frame carriage, perfect for sitting on a castle wall flanking weak points
Barak
Barak is a Demi-culvern Drake, the largest replica 17th century artillery piece in the UK.
Historically it would be the largest gun to be considered a field piece, or the smallest siege piece.
Barak is owned by the Roundhead Association, and Hazzard's often provides crew members to work it.
Babel
Our Iron 3 pounder, of a slightly later era that rarely sees service of late
Sodom
Sodom is a cast iron Robinette that doesn't come out very often. Similar pieces are very common within the English Civil War Society.
