Stuart Signals Camp Area, near Townsville, Queensland during WW2

STUART SIGNALS CAMP AREA
TOWNSVILLE, QLD
DURING WW2

While this was known as the Signals Camp Area, Stuart, I believe it was probably the Army Signals camp associated with the Army Signals Bunker at Roseneath, near Townsville. It was more likely to have been located at Roseneath not far from this Army Signals Bunker. The Stuart Signals Camp Area was designed by the Allied Works Council.

The camp was adjacent to an American Army Stores Dump. Perhaps this was Brookhill.

The Camp contained:-

AWAS Sleeping Huts (surrounded by a barbed wire fence)
Officers and Sergeants Sleeping Hut
Tentage area
Orderly Room
Officers Showers
Kitchen
Officers Mess
AWAS Mess
Sergeants Mess
Canteen
A new well
Pump
Latrines
Wireless aerial/Antenna Farm
Transmitter Station
Maintenance building
A disused windpump
Tank Stand
Store
Cow Shed
Dairy

AWAS Dorothy Joan Gray (QF272082) spent time at Stewart Creek area outside of Townsville during WWII. Her granddaughter Donna Thompson sent me some of her grandmother's photos (see below) one of which may possibly be a photo of the Stuart Signals Camp Area.

Some of Dorothy Joan Gray's Postings were as follows. Can anyone help me with where these units were posted at the dates shown below:-
