Hello, I am in need of some information on the Large bomb in the photo, i.e.. what type is it, name, year etc.

Any and all information would be greatly appreciated.

All the Best

Looks like a 1915 era IED. Most likely bulk explosive with some aerodynamics added go get blast affect.

Thank you for your replies. We may not know the exact name of this beast, but at least we know where it was used. Gallipoli.

Again thank You..
All the Best
