The location of No. 6 Anti-Aircraft Practice Camp has revealed itself in this from the 23 Aug 1943:

The Station Commander visited No. 6 A.A.P.C. firing range at HAUXLEY POINT at 1100 hours on inspection and to investigate reports of difficulty caused by the appearance of fishing boats in the bay during firing practice - the matter had however been cleared up before his arrival.


Not where I was expecting - thought it would be at the Bondicarr end.
Glad they avoided shooting up fishing boats though.
