Unfortunately I can't. But this

might entertain you while waiting for more useful replies. It's a masterpiece of scratchbuilding.

I haven't been able to find anything yet.

But forum members may be interested in the other Great War artillery located in Bloomingdale, New Jersey:

(And perhaps those forum members are better able to help GaryM)

Thanks for the help guys, the book looks exactly what I need with the drawings of the gun,carriage, sights and limber but will have to go on the wish list. Unfortunately pensioners have to prioritize the expenditure and a 1/32 scale model will just have to wait for a while.

Gary,   if you're building in 1/32,  I would suggest you consider the excellent rendition of the piece by Scale Link Ltd.

Go to Artillery-drawings-moveable & Siege armament then scroll down to 60pdr BL Mk1.
There is a nice photograph as well.
