Perpendicular west tower of four stages and impressive proportions. The church is famous for its Norman font bearing Adam and Eve with appropriate inscriptions and symbols of the zodiac including Sagittarius and Aquarius.

0167 Rodman Gun Img39_10 by Edward

Roll 39 Ektachrome 100 - 10 Rodman Gun sign – Sandy Hook Light, Kearney Rd, National Park, Monmouth, NJ. May 28, 1991. Decimal degrees: 40.465347, -74.005530 Good

“Rodman Gun”

“Developed in the Civil War era, this type of 20-inch gun gave the U.S. the largest muzzle-loading cannon ever made. At the same time, however, rifled guns were being developed which made all smoothbore cannon obsolete.

With spin from spiral grooves inside the barrel pointed projectiles from rifled cannon could travel farther and with greater accuracy than cannon-balls from smoothbore weapons. During the Civil War, rifled artillery easily penetrated the thick masonry walls of several coastal forts, which influenced the Army to abandon construction of a masonry fort on Sandy Hook.”

Above portrait:

“A large gun burst near Lieutenant Thomas Rodman in 1844. Afterwards the ordnance officer committed himself to improving the technology of cannon manufacture, and invented the casting process that made possible this one-piece, 115, 100-pound smoothbore barrel.”

Beside portrait:

“Major General Thomas J. Rodman”
