The most significant Stone Age archaeological site found was at NSW2012/005. The site is also an open scatter of artefacts but it is located in front of a low granite outcrop immediately alongside a small water course. Artefacts of quartz, quartzite and CCS occur, along with fragments of OES, and plenty of pottery. The pottery includes a complete, externally applied lug which must have fallen off its pot. A small ashy deposit seems to be present at the foot of the granite outcrop. This site is entirely undisturbed and is very well suited to excavation.
Qtz, Qz, CCS, OES, pottery (lots including a complete externally applied lug). A small ashy deposit seems to be present at foot of small cliff. Excellent site, undisturbed.
