I've noticed the same type of box appearing often in photos of the 60 pounder gun - appears to be about two feet high. Has anyone got any info on this, what it was for, or even better yet have dimensions and images of it?
It can be seen in this image;

Have a feeling it may be for charge bags as opposed to shells
Cheers, Rob
