Description
Entrance to the “Senussi Hospital”. This was a concrete cave constructed in a wadi on the eastern side of Tobruk harbour. Italians had concreted the roof when Australians captured the area. British and Australian members of the Army Service Corps worked during the summer of 1941 to develop it for use as a supply store.
