While there were several wartime constructions in Australia where widely separated runways were joined by taxiway, Gould is unique in that it was joined by taxiway to another airfield (Batchelor). Note Gould appearing at the bottom of the diagram of Batchelor
Unusual maybe but not unique; in Wales, St Athan was joined to Llandow by a taxiway and on Malta, Luqa, Safi and Hal Far had a taxiway connecting all three.
