Gun's barrels
Smooth-bore Swedish made barrels of Finspong of 1850s are near the entrance to Eastern battery. The farthest gun looks like something experimental: the smaller caliber rifled barrel of 160 mm was inserted inside of smooth-bore muzzle-loading gun. If I'm not mistaken, this was done by the method of the English engineer William Palliser in the 1910s.
