This naval type twelve pound muzzle-loader was cast in 1816 at Woolwich, England, and was brought to Vancouver around 1894. The barrel bears the crests of King George III and the Earl of Mulgrave, Master General of Ordnance. Its restoration and pavilion were centennial gifts in 1986 to the City of Vancouver from EBCO Industries Ltd., Chester F. Millar, First Generation Capital Corporation, and Hudson's Bay Company.
