Betweeen September 1774 and April 1775, the people of Massachusetts raced British soldiers to secure large quantities of artillery and ammunition. Overall, the Patriot forces moved scores of cannon from the coast of Massachusetts to inland stockpiles including one located in Concord. In 1776 these cannon remained a key part of the continental army. Come experience the devestating power of artillery in 1775 and 1776.
Firing will be dependent on weather and cannon crew.
