 Gully Ravine, Gallipoli Turkey

The third battle of Krithia was conducted on 4 June, Haricot Redoubt on 21 June, Gully Ravine between 28 June and 5 July, and Achi Baba Nullah on 12-13 July, where although gaining local success the Allies failed to achieve a breakthrough. As August approached casualties and sickness in all armies increased.
The well on Gully Beach; Gully Beach remains completely unspoilt, much as it was during the Landings in April 1915. The well was dug by Joseph Murray of the Hood Battalion, Royal Naval Division on 21 July to supply water to the Division. It stands near the entrance to the infamous Gully Ravine.
