Default Identify this

I was recently flying around Deal in Kent, and was traveling along the coastline when I found this.

Its a cannon obviously, a little charred. Any known history on this?

You will fond it some few miles up the valley from dover. On the westernside. A bit far from the channel to be a channel gun.
