An unknown number of graves marked with stone cairns.

Two different categories of graves occur on the site. A number of recent ones, all marked with stone cairns, can probably be associated with the old Cleveland quarry, and are therefore not older than the quarry self. These graves are all grouped together in an informal cemetery.

A second group of graves can be associated with an Iron Age settlement, as stone walling occurs over a large section of the area. In the latter case, these graves are not marked and occur sporadically over the site. Apart from the graves, other cultural material is to be expected as this seems to have been quite a large settlement.

Directions:
The graves are located on a small norite outcrop south of the old Cleveland Quarry, next to the R101 (old Warmbaths road) north of Pretoria, Gauteng Province.
