British 6 Pounders (c. 1750)
British six-pound cannon were once displayed in front of Armory in Whitehall, NY. These are artifacts of the American Lake Champlain Fleet of 1776-1777 and were salvaged from Whitehall Harbor near Champlain Canal Lock 12 on 1910.
Nearby, the New York State historical sign describes the British cannon in front of armory. The sign reads "Early British cannon placed on board vessels of B. Arnold's Lake Champlain fleet, both were blown up in Whitehall Harbor by their crews July 6, 1777, to avoid capture by the British."
