A very distinct Aboriginal engraving of a “koala type” Daramulan on small rock platform near Peats Ridge Road. McCarthy stated that the figure “may not actually be a koaIa wearing a headdress, but it is probably a man of the Koala totemic clan impersonating the animaI, a not uncommon feature of animal figures in the Sydney-Hawkesbury engravings”.
There are a couple of axe grinding grooves and water channels around a small pothole above the Daramulan figure.
The site is on a very long shelf of rock in a swampy area; most of the rock has now been covered with vegetation.
