Nestled amongst the Australian bush are more World War 2 prisoner of war ruins, this time near the town of Jarrahdale. Following on from my previous video about the Marrinup camp near Dwellingup (linked below) the Prisoner of War Control Hostel W20 (simply known as “Camp W20”) was a smaller satellite camp where troublemakers among the prisoners were sent.
It’s also the site of a mill in the 1890s, so let’s hop in the ever-faithful Kia and explore the area!
