In 1939 the Royal Australian Air Force established a base called RAAF Base Mallala to the north of the Mallala township. The base was originally used for advanced training for RAAF pilots. The base was subsequently closed in May 1960.
During this time there was an artillery range / military training in the Pt Prime area during WWII. (Port Prime).
There seems to be very little public information about Port Prime and it's use. (Other than a listing declaring it safe and free of exposive ordinance).

I recall as a kid, climbing in and out of the bunkers and pill boxes. I was able to find old spent ammunition and bullet holes in cement targets.
Of recent, vandals have levelled the first pillbox at the enterence to the area. This is such a shame. It was a landmark. It always caused wonder seeing it standing there.
Anti-tank Platoon's used 17 pounder guns at the Port Prime Range where they destroyed an old Bren-gun Carrier located on the range for RAAF target practise.
There are still pill boxes and bunkers there. You can find .303 ammunition. Bullets and Shells (corroded)
I have found and dated many shells to the 1950's. enfieldking.tripod.com/enfieldking/id12.html
These are Army / RAAF related.
I recall the cement pillar fences and rusting barbed wire leading down the road to the beach. Now, much of this is off limits as it is now a bird sanctuary.
It is for these reasons, I am documenting the site in photos.
I have found one .51 inch (13mm) anti tank round and many .303 inch (7.7 mm) rounds at the site.
this place is a part of history in the Defense of Australia.
(I have contacted the Port Wakefield proof and experimental establishment, P&EE and Defence Science, JPEU/JLG, Keswick barracks and more and found very little about the site).
