Clearly
Rob,
I have not said that the trays themselves were used, as you say and show the 17 pdr rounds are too long. But I am sure I have read somewhere that there were conversion kits for the limbers to take the 17 pdr rounds. Perhaps the central dividing panel was removed and some rounds were stored lengthways as opposed to end on. This question about the limbers has been banded around for sometime. Upto yet it has not been confirmed either way that they were used to carry 17 pdr rounds or just used to carry stores and extra kit.
Great photos by the way.
Cheers
Kevin
