X was a large cannon used during the English Civil War (1642 - 1649) during the Siege of Colchester. The town of Colchester was a walled city with a castle and several churches. Standing right next to the city wall, was St Mary's Church. Placed on the wall of St. Mary's Church was a huge cannon named X. X's tragic fall resulted from a shot from a Parliamentary cannon which damaged the wall beneath the cannon. The Royalists, or Cavaliers, tried to raise X up again, and place it on another part of the wall. However, because the cannon was so heavy they were unable to raise it. As a result, the town of Colchester fell to the Parliamentarians. Name X.
