Excuse my ignorance but what does TSR, LLB, and SBG stand for? Also, was the 12-pounder a naval gun originally?
David,

This is a mixed contract of body types. SBG is Small Box Girder, TSR is probably wrong and should be TSB which is Trestle or Sliding Bay. LLB was Long Landing Bay. All these are bridging roles.
