Relatively modern, I think I can see a tone ringer in there.
Unless someone recognises the model, I would proceed as follows.

Obtain a line cord with the "BT" plug on one end and cut off whatever is at the other.
You will have four wires in a flat row, you are initially interested in the outer two wires only, try connecting them to the various combinations of terminals where the three wires go now, you should hear the dial-tone when you have the right pair. The third terminal is probably just anti-tinkle and you may not need it.
