Cairns 50 - 60+ years ago

I have seen this photograph before but I'm unable to acknowledge its source or the year it was taken (possibly pre World War 2) but it shows the area along the base of Mt Whitfield which is now of course the sprawling suburbs of Edge Hill and Whitfield. Redlynch Valley can be seen in the background.  I remember reading somewhere that there were large army camps established around this area during WW2.

More photographs can be found on The Pteropus Follow Me on Pinterest page.
