My great uncle, Philip Dungle, noted in his diary for 1815 how the sunsets were vivid and winter weather was decidedly chilly. It froze the water in the ferrets' water bowl, which was a very unusual event according to the rest of his diary.

Actually the previous answers are all wrong. The biggest was the Greek Island Thera/Santorini which exploded sometime 500-1500BC, too lazy to do your research for you , and get the correct date. This devastated the Mediterranean Civilisations and led to the Myth of The destruction of Atlantis. Check it out, a bit of work but you will be rewarded. This was the biggest in Recorded History.

Yes it was Krakatoa 1883. Several cubic miles of rock was thrown into the atmosphere which affected the worlds weather for about two years
