Brief description of site: About 300 m south-west of the painted rock overhang and on a lower 600 m contour there is a cluster of large rock blocs just off the slope of the valley side and on the valley floor with a vast flat expanse in front of it. The jumbled blocs make for a spacious rock shelter that has a tunnel through it. There is a very noticeable large and light-coloured rock overhand on the contour above this site.

There are many stone tools of hornfels and quartzite on the floor of this site and all around it - it must have been a popular place to live. There is a lot of ostrich eggshell in both fragment and bead form. Recent stone seats have been brought in to take advantage of the breeze that blows through this tunnel-cave.
Brief description of art: On the outside of the overhang and at the entrance to the smallest part of the tunnel is a vertical rock face with a 750 mm x 700 mm engraved cluster comprising 11 feline spoor, 2 antelope spoor and 31 cupules. The cupules measure between 16 mm - 35 mm in diameter and between 4 mm - 11 mm deep. The spoor are all engraved in pecked-infill and vary from 55 mm x 40 mm in size to 80 mm x 75 mm. 2 of the feline spoor are shown with claws extended. On the outer face of the rock bloc there are 3 faded red human figures in red paint representing a Bushman rock painting episode.
