Done some research Martyn and this tank looks identical to the kv-85 except that the gun is to big.Is-2 tank was a developement of the kv and the gun looks right but the rest of the tank still looks like the kv -85 .there was a experimental kv-122 which was a kv-85 with a 122 mm gun so this may be one of these,
Nick these photos were taken at the Polish aviation museum in Krakow.Visited there on 3 occasions and no doubt ill be back as the exhibits are always changing as they seem to restore all sorts of military equipment.Not a well advertised attraction but worth taking the time to find.Heres a few more
Ps they have the biggest collection of aero engines in europe.One hangar is full of these,both jet and piston

Looks like an intersting place to visit Mervyn!

Me and Lorna have been toying with visiting Poland one day to do the Auschwitz trip so may take a look at this place too!
