Site Comments:

The Site RH-12 stone structure remains are inferred to represent a settlement or lookout point type Colonial Period
structure. Structure remains measure approximately 1.5+m in length, but alluvial impact has taken a negative toll
on the structure itself. A number of fragmented pieces of blue and white porcelain are present on the surface of
the site with the potential of classification to type level that will assist with at least dating of the site, should any
diagnostic pieces be uncovered. In addition to porcelain pieces, earthenware, glass and rusted metal form part of
the surface artefact assemblage. The site will be impacted on by inundation levels and Phase 2 archaeological
mitigation should precede development.
