She now lives only a house or 2 away from the site but it was demolished at the end of the War and Toowoomba Council eventually built a water tank on the site plus the television stations were located here when we had local TV stations. Any knowledge of the listening pst - I came across Cabarlah while searching for this but that is not in Toowoomba..........the site my cousin refers to would be located at the eastern end of North Street, Toowoomba in what is now called Mount Lofty..........................................James

Would love to know more. Can your cousin add more to the story? Were they concrete lined bunkers, or a tunnel? Size? No or rooms?
