This long shelter above Wollombi Road would have had a spectacular display of Aboriginal rock art, but has been badly defaced by graffiti on most of the vertical surfaces.
Alhough most of the figures are hand stencils, there is a small, charcoal man high up on the wall.
On the ceiling of the overhang is another figure in red ochre, which may be a koradji or “medicine man”.
Ony a few of the many hand stencils escaped being covered by graffiti, being fairly high on the wall.
Most of the hand stencils scattered across the wall of the shelter are in white ochre.
One stencil has a groove all the way around it, which may have been an attempt to remove it.
