Equipment in Underground Magazine

These three pieces of equipment from top to bottom are rammer, worm and sponge. All of them were the important tools for operating the 64-pounder gun.
The steps are pushing cartridge into the barrel by rammer, cleaning the remained cartridge in the barrel by the worm after the gun had been fired and extinguishing the remained cartridge by dipped woollen head sponge.
