This bomb casing stands outside Image I had a friendly chat with the sentries who couldn't think of a reason why a photo of a WW2 bomb case could threaten national security! Sadly they had no further information about the type of weapon it was. There was a Barns Wallis designed Tall Boy inside the gates but I didn't even try to get a picture of that.
