Turkish peninsula, the scene of heavy fighting in 1915 (9)

I believe the answer is:

gallipoli

(Other definitions for gallipoli that I've seen before include "Long ago landing" , "Turkish scene of WW1 landing" , "part of Turkey" , "Scene of WW2 landing in 1915" , "old war-zone" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
