Summary: A long, low shelter with Aboriginal rock art near Christys Gully which has multiple charcoal and red ochre paintings.

This low but deep shelter once contained spectacular panels of Aboriginal rock art; even since the site was first recorded a few decades ago there has been significant degradation of the motifs (one panel of charcoal figures has completely disappeared).

Multiple figures drawn in red ochre are best preserved: they include what appear to be a boomerang, shield and a kangaroo.

Another kangaroo or marsupial figure is drawn in charcoal.

Another three charcoal motifs and two hand stencils can no longer be seen.
