Shell-casing in Courteney Park, Salcombe	by Bernard de Neumann (Member 10214936) on 10-Aug-2010
Does anyone know anything about this roughly 15" shell that is cemented onto a plinth on the east side of the park? Such shells were fired from battleships, which were too large to have entered the anchorage at Salcombe. Could it perhaps have been fired from a battleship during the run-up pracrice landings at and near Slapton that occured prior to D-Day? I'm told that it used to have a plaque t hat has long since disappeared. ... more >> Re: Shell-casing in Courteney Park, Salcombe by pat (Member 10253741) on 31-Oct-2010 The shell casing is a 16 inch, from a battleship, well before WW2. My husband went to a small school neaarby from 1929 onwards and remembers it well. they spent every 'playtime' in courtney park and saw this monument every day. He cannot remember precisely the inscription on the plaque which was fixed into the concrete. It is suggested that someone 'took off the plaque to cut the grass' which is strange, seeing that the plaque was not in the grass. He thinks it was something to do with the battle of Jutland in 1916, but cannot remember precisely. We have suggested to the Salcombe information centre that this shell must have come from the navy so maybe they have a record. Also, it would have been an 'event' and almost certainly in the local paper, Salcombe Gazette. Some years ago I know hard copy archives of these existed because I researched some of them, in Kingsbridge. I believe now the papers are printed from Ivybridge but am not sure. An event like that would probably have been on the front pages, so a search between 1916/17 and 1929 would possibly reveal the answer. We no longer live in UK so cannot do this ourselves, so have suggested people 'on the ground' in Salcombe, do it. Finally we know one other person who is still alive who was also at the school at the same time as my husband so we are writing to her to see if she has more memories. Hope this is of some help, Pat ... more >> Reply
