Hi - Noticed you did not have the bunker that is on South Road in the middle of Adelaide. The bunker is a classic wartime, solid concrete air raid shelter. It has recently been decided to ensure that this old WWII site survives in original condition. It is located on South Road, just a stone's throw north of the Torrens football ground/Old Brickworks corner. I think there is either a bowling club or tennis club just behind it. Anyway, it is in pristine condition having been closed up since the war and the council have done a great job keeping it looking good on the outside - let me know if you would like more info and I will see what I can find out.
Cheers/
