Summary: An Aboriginal engraving site near Mount Penang with an eel, shield and indeterminate figure.

This deeply grooved eel (is on a very small rock platform near Mount Penang (one of a small number of Mount Penang Aboriginal engravings that survived the development of this area).

It’s not too far from another Aboriginal site with two eels – but this eel has a different shape.

Below the eel (to the south) is a very weathered figure with very shallow grooves; it’s not clear what it represents.

Above the eel to the north is a shield with two tranverse lines and a vertical line, which was recorded by Bob Pankhurst (it’s now completely covered by soil and vegetation).
