Portsmouth, United Kingdom - August 20, 2018:  A panorama of Mallets Mortar in front the Fort Nelson - a Royal Armouries museum near Portsmouth and part of the 'Palmerston Follies' chain of fortification built around the naval town of Portsmouth during the late Victorian era (1860-1875).  Mallet's Mortar was a British shell-firing mortar built for the Crimean War, but never used in combat.  The mortar was designed by Robert Mallet and was constructed in separate sections so that it could be transported.  Two examples were built by the Thames Ironworks and Shipbuilding Company at a cost of £4,300 per mortar, although the project threw the company into bankruptcy which resulted in the work being divided among three other firms which managed to deliver the mortars in May 1857.  Testing began on 19 October 1857 with further testing on 18 December 1857, 21 July 1858 and 28 of July 1858.  Each test was brought to an end by damage to the mortar.  A total of 19 rounds were fired with a rate of about 4 shells an hour being achieved.  \nShell weight was between 2,352 and 2,940 pounds (1,067 and 1,334 kg).  In testing with an 80-pound (36 kg) charge it fired the lighter shell a distance of 2,759 yards (2,523 m) with a flight time of 23 seconds.  Both mortars are today in the collection of the Royal Armouries, the UK's national museum of arms and armour.  The gun used for testing is on loan to the Royal Artillery at their base in Woolwich, while the unfired gun is on display at the Royal Armouries Fort Nelson.
