An old sea mine, sat near West Pier at Scarborough harbour, North Yorkshire. Now painted and repurposed as a charity collection box. I’m not going to bother trying to identify it, I spend ages trying to ID the last one and couldn’t be sure of it (https://skfb.ly/6RsLI). This mine does have ‘Hertz’ horns, designed to detonate the main charge on contact, as opposed to the magnetic detonation design of the last one. Mines that looked a lot like this were ubiquitous in naval warfare around Great Britain in both World Wars, and indeed may remain a danger to shipping today when they turn up.
