Gully Beach, 1915

Photograph, World War One, Gallipoli (1915).

Gully Beach (also known as Y2 Beach) at Cape Helles was the location for the headquarters of Major-General Aylmer Hunter-Weston's 29th Division. Originally, the Allies had considered landing there on 25 April 1915 but decided against this as they believed it was too well defended. In fact, there was only a small force there.
