Somewhere damp? ;-)

Your front lawn?

Along the coast.

Clowns. Clowns, the lot of you!

Not on this continent. By the look of it, it's European. Weren't all of our Coast Defense Artillery of the "disappearing" type that mounted behind earthworks so that the flat-shooting direct fire from battleships couldn't hit them?

Actually Rivrdog, that *is* on our continent.

And not all that far from you, if my information is correct.

Of course, "all that far" *is* a relative term.

One of the last remaining (very rare) pre-Civil War border defenses on San Juan Island kept just in case those pesky Canadians try to send their kamikaze pigs against freedom-loving American potatoes?

Oddly enough, it looks Japanese, mostly due to the sloped roof. Can I ask if this is a war trophy?

Ahh, Japanese (British influence), this continent, the Pig War, rain forestry looking. How 'bout BC?

Fort Flagler, near Port Townsend, WA? I think all the guns at Fort Casey, across the straits from Port Townsend were of the disappearing type. My second guess would be Astoria, Oregon, but I forget the name of the Fort......

...... Mr. C.

Fort Columbia, WA, north of Astoria, OR?

It could be *from* many of those places. The person who sent me the picture says it's along one of the paths at Woodland Park, Seattle.

And with *that* hint, I found it. Yer a sneaky bastid, Armorer!!

Way to go Brab!

Thankyewverramuch. I never would have found it with my search words without the locale clue. Who knew it was a Navy gun, fer heaven's sake?!

I, um, had a clue to the naval origin due to the caliber...
