Cannon Ramps

Our Product:

Each ramp is about 3.5 inches long, by 1 inch high at its high end, by 2.25 inches wide. Each ramp is made of hand-stained 'log like' wood, cut and flocked. The front section of the ramp is left open so you may use Barrels, earth defenses or other obstructions to impede the approach.


Historical Description:

 

Cannon Ramps were used to augment fortifications and provide better footing for cannons and artillerist. The trajectory of the projectile (ball or canister) would also overcome terrain height difficulties. For more information please click here.
