Further Information

The Cave: According to Aboriginal mythology the Waugal (Rainbow Serpent) rested here, curling itself around the central pillar of the cave, before continuing its journey upriver. Around 1900 the cave was used to burn lime by T.H. Briggs and Company. The natural hole to the surface has been enlarged, probably to allow materials to be hoisted up and down by headgear on top.
