DescriptionA cannon, two piles of cannon balls, several park benches, and what appears to be the base of a flagpole are on a grassy lawn on a point surrounded by a paved sidewalk and a seawall. It appears to be low tide. Many loosely piled rocks are exposed in the right foreground. A large body of water is in the background.
