Two Cannons Moved To St. George’s Town Hall
The St. George’s Town Hall now has two new ‘guards’, with the two historic cannons finding a new home outside the building.
The recently restored cannons, which are from the 1800s, were moved in conjunction with the National Museum of Bermuda.
The restoration of the cannons saw the National Museum treat and repaint them, arranging the transport of the cannons and carriages; the new carriages were custom-made by John Slough of London.
This collaborative heritage project was made possible through the generosity of a corporate donor, the OIL Group of Companies, and the individual donors, Ian and Felicite Davidson, Jeff Manson, Justin Williams, Tim Davidson, and Dr. Edward Harris.
