What a find it is a GL Mk111 c radar trailer and untill this post I thought I had the only one left in the world.The house that went on top of it contained all the electrics and two radar dishes.The whole shelter turned on top of the trailer and in the photos you can see the rounded part at the rear of the top deck to give the shelter clearance to turn.There is a lot of info on this forum about the trailers and the radar.Australia had about eighty as far as I can tell.Does it have a ARN ? The radar was made by REL in Canada in about 1943
Cheers Ken
