Mess Hall & Ablutions

The location of the Mess Hall close to the waters of Mangles Bay on the north side of Cape Peron, was also the location of the latrines (communal toilet), showers & ablutions as well as the Guard Room.

​

The Guard Room was 30' x 18' with three rooms and consisted of a timber frame, pitch roof (CAC), T&G flooring, ceiling and s/kraft partition and the walls were HWWH.
