Gun salutes have existed for centuries as a sign of respect or welcome, both on land and at sea, marking special occasions or military honours. Gun salutes are not confined to London, saluting stations can also be found at other locations around the United Kingdom and overseas including Edinburgh Castle in Scotland, Cardiff and Hillsborough Castle in Northern Ireland. The tradition of the gun salute dates from the 15th Century and the early days of sail. Ships, when visiting foreign ports, would discharge all their guns out to sea on arrival to signify that they came in peace with empty guns. According to one theory, British ships at that time carried seven guns so seven shots became the standard to signal that the ship was now unarmed. The guns onshore would welcome the incoming ships by firing three rounds for every shot fired from the ships – putting the total number of shots fired at 21 – hence the 21-gun salute, the most common number of gun salutes used today.
