Neil,
It didn't show for me with that file extension. Try this:

Somehow, it looks French to me, but I'm just guessing.

Looks like the track assembly to an old Drag Line or Steam Shovel from the 20's or 30's.

That casing looks like the chain drive.

But that's just a guess

Okay, that could be it. It appears that there are other tractors & similar equipment in the area around it.

Certainly not having a raised front wheel usually implies it's not military.

My guess is its the running gear from a Garfield-Holt 3 Ton 1918 Artillery tractor , or a similar model .
