The first update to the NATIONAL ARTILLERY SURVEY has just been uploaded and includes an additional 42 guns.  Most of these are owned by English Heritage and some are scarce and unique.

Guns from the wonderful Muckleburgh Collection have started to be added as well, and the bulk of them will be included in the next update.

The database is freely available to download and is also open to additions and corrections by anyone with information to enhance it.  Updates can be submitted on input/update forms available for download from the NATIONAL ARTILLERY SURVEY page.

The NATIONAL ARTILLERY SURVEY page is within the ARTILLERY SURVEYS page.

The indices of Newsletters have now been updated to include the latest Newsletter No. 133.

Graham Whittington’s last Newsletter, No. 133, is now available for download from the PUBLICATIONS page.  The file is now at the printer and the hard copy Newsletter should be available for posting at the end of next week.

The Ordnance Society is proud to announce the NATIONAL ARTILLERY SURVEY.  This project is designed to set up and maintain a database of all Breech-Loading and Quick-Firing guns in the UK.  There are several hundred of these in the four countries of the UK, some of which are foreign guns, including ‘Trophy Guns’.

The database is freely available to download and is also open to additions and corrections by anyone with information to enhance it.  Updates can be submitted on input/update forms available for download from the NATIONAL ARTILLERY SURVEY page.

The NATIONAL ARTILLERY SURVEY page is within the ARTILLERY SURVEYS page.

A few more guns have been ‘found’ and a large number of pictures of various guns have been added to the Ordnance Society’s ‘Flickr’ account, and linked to their respective guns.

This first Ordnance Society Survey has been much improved by the photos that people have been sending in, as well as the updated information and occasional ‘new’ gun being added to the list.  See the “GUN SURVEYS” page.

We will be launching our next survey, on UK Artillery, very soon.

An updated version has just been uploaded with MANY more picture links and new data.  Additional information and pictures of these guns is still required – a data input/update form is available on the “GUN SURVEYS” page.

Another update has just been uploaded with more pictures linked in.

Hard-copy Newsletter No. 132 was posted this afternoon, a few days earlier than expected.

The latest Newsletter, No. 132, is now available for download from the PUBLICATIONS page on the Ordnance Society website.  The file has just been sent to the printer, who has promised delivery at the end of this week.  Members who have opted for hard copy should have these posted to them by the end of next week.
