After a little searching, it appears to be a British BL (Breech Loading?) 60 Pounder (5 inch) on a "type 2" carriage. Manufactured by EOC (Elswick Ordnance Company)?
There is a much clearer view of the data plate from an equivalent gun here: http://www.waymarking.com/waymarks/WM6BGA_BL_60_Pounder_5_inch_Gun_Cairo_Illinois
I've hunted around and found it identified as British and German.I think we can rule out German.
Mikeym_us HeavyArty: It looks to be about 155mm in caliber and a US or British WW1 design. I can't find anything to positively ID it though. It is a WWI design as it bears a 1916 date.

This gun had three plaques on it,all in English.Only one of which was legible.It appears to read 'WI CARRIAGE'.
'WI' would mean Wisconsin,correct?
I'm currently reading a E.B. Sledge's "With the Old Breed" and there's a b/w pic in it that shows a gun that looks very close to this one and identifies it as a Japanese 150mm howitzer with the pic taken on Okinawa.
