Directions:
Take R66 to Eshowe, turn right into Kangena St. and pass the hospital (on LHS). Turn Right into Weber St. and this becomes Clark St. Continue along this road to the end (near a primary school). There is a row of prefabricated houses to the left of the school and the site is located on the hill in front (north) of these houses.

The MSA component consists of an extensive scatter of MSA stone tools across the entire property. These tools included flakes and cores. The LSA component consists of a few flakes and one formal tool (a scraper) that are located along the southern part of the property. The IIA component consists of several pottery sherds that appear to occur along the western part of the property. An upper grinding stone was also observed. The pottery is undecorated and probably dates to the late Iron Age or Historical Period.
