Presumably this cannon given its large size ( 26 feet long) still exists somewhere in Hong Kong?

Mention is made here of the former Victoria Battery gun on the grounds of Univeristy Lodge

The cannon referred to in this article now stands in the garden of the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Hong Kong, which was the site of the 19th century Central Battery. Moddsey is right on the ball in his assessment.
