How to fire a 17th Century cannon
There are fewer sights more impressive on a battlefield than a cannon being fired and, Monika, Matross to the Earl of Manchester's Regiment of Foote takes you through the process of loading and firing a 17th Century 'robinette' cannon.
Why is she in women's clothes, you may ask? During the English Civil War there were numerous sieges where civilians were involved in defending castles and fortifications, so it might not have been unusual to see a woman stationed on the walls!
Want to have a go yourself? Being a member of a cannon crew is actually an excellent way to watch and participate in a battle at the same time – you have a very important role, but you can also get a unique perspective on the battle itself. Visit www.earlofmanchesters.co.uk to discover how you could be a part of the fun!
