The 32-pounder 56 cwt cannon was an artillery piece designed and used by the British Armed Forces in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It was by far the most common 32-pounder used by the Royal Navy in the Napoleonic Wars, with 1961 guns being recorded as in use and 1733 being in storage at the end of March 1857. The cannon was a smoothbore muzzle-loading gun, being 56 long cwt (2,800 kg), and firing projectiles of 32 lb (15 kg). Sir Thomas Blomefield designed the cannon in the late 1780s and early 1790s as part of his system of gun construction. It was the heaviest cannon used by ships of the Royal Navy from the 1790s to the late 1830s, and it was used on the lower decks of ships of the line such as HMS Victory. rdf:langString
