Just after WW1 ended, thousands
Just after WW1 ended, thousands of German artillery guns and other weapons were distributed to cities, towns and villages all over Britain and the Commonwealth for public display as war memorials. Today, less than a dozen remain in the UK. What happened to all of these guns? Find out here.
Very special thanks to the following people who kindly gave up their time to go out and photograph and film many of the guns that appear in this video - I cannot tell you how much I appreciate their wonderful assistance. They are: Paul McCanny; Andy Sykes; Captain James Street, RM; Norman Hewitt; Andrew McKay; James Masters; Rhys Thomas; Max Blondeaux; Andrew Packham; Arthur Alberti; Matt Lord; Gary Brindle; Nigel Henderson - Great War Researcher at History Hub Ulster; Adam from Belfast; Pierce Clarke, and James Bullock.
