Ward Motors on the corner of Church Street and Wickham Street, Fortitude Valley in Brisbane was used by the Royal Australian Navy for their RAN Naval Stores Depots, possibly in late 1945. There were two bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen and bathroom in the first floor of this building.

The Ward Motors building had previously been used by the Headquarters and Headquarters Squadron of the 81st Air Depot Group.

Can anyone help me with more information?
