Welcome to the Artillery Society website
The Artillery Society is a small group from the Bristol (UK) area who undertook the project to build a 19th Century
artillery piece, a 6 pounder of 1841.
The project was started in 1999 and the cannon slowly took shape over the next seven years.
Please browse around the site to meet the members, see pictures of our
cannon's construction and view our events page
for details and pictures of us firing our cannon. Please contact us via the
online form or
email for more information.
