Quebec City: Carmelina Bray posing by the Britannic cannon Bloomfield caliber 32 lbs, rue des Remparts, Quebec. A rempart is a hill or construction that is built to protect a castle or a war area. La rue des Remparts was traced in the last centuries of the French regime, but back at that time, there was no remparts - in sense of wall - back in the Nouvelle-France era because the cliff was, as they believe, was a natural protection. After the English invasion (1775-1776), Britannic authorities decided to establish a well structured defense system that was built by Gother Mann.
