Riverside Drive is a great attraction to explore in Windsor. The Drive runs East and West for several miles along the Detroit River which separates Canada from the United States.

Robins records this gun as number 27071 dated 1840 a 24pdr from the Alexandrovski Works directed by Armstrong. The cannon was the subject of a site visit in 2019 which confirmed its presence and date.
