Perforated stone slab reused as a grave marker. A roughly rectangular slab standing at a slanted angle, located in a central position on the south facing slope of the overall mound. This is one of two stones noted by Beveridge in the graveyard.
The perforation is centrally located towards the base of the visible portion of the slab and is approx 0.008m in diameter the slab dimesions are roughly 1m x 0.5m. This stone would be easy to miss as long grass will obscure the hole. It is adjacent to a family plot marked by concrete posts and a metal rail. .
