Found by Stan Beckensall and students from the University of Newcastle during an excavation in 1973, this carved outcrop was one of several previously unknown petroglyphs discovered. In addition to other carved sections of outcrop, the dig uncovered a double arc of cobbles placed on top of bedrock, some of which were also carved. Motifs include cups, cups with arcs, penannulars, grooves, multi rings, and linear grooves.
