Then out of the mist on the 13th of December the British submarine the B11 came through the minefield and fired a single torpedo, hitting the Mesudiye which then overturned and sank. Of the 800 men onboard the loss was 10 officers and 27 sailors. So.... there was no escaping her destiny. Her guns were used in the March 18th sea battle in the straits and the Mesudiye guns scored a devastating direct hit on the French battleship the Bouvet.
After the war the sole remaining gun was placed high on the Second Ridge overlooking the Aegean, right behind Baby 700 cemetery. There she remains to this day.

Craig Roach or more commonly known as Roachie, has wandered the secluded and stunningly beautiful WW1 battlefield of Gallipoli for thirty years. In that time he has seen nature slowly taking back the scars and tragedies of war. Roachie, has always been an avid artist and has passionately devoted his life on creating an artistic legacy of this tragic but beautiful place.
The hills, gullies, old trenches and beaches are littered with the remains of WW1. A hundred years on and there is now an artistic marriage between man and nature.
If you'd like to visit this place then Roachie will take you off the beaten track, show you the best place to paint, draw, sit in solitude and maybe share a bottle of wine. You can check out my exploits if you search for The Gallipoli Artist, on the web or Facebook.
See you there,
