Conservation action taken: Conservation
The site is in a fairly good condition: the dense bush that hides the shelter does a good job of protecting the paintings. Sheep have been in the shelter and they have been rubbing against the panel. The water that runs through the shelter has done some erosion on the shelter's deposits. Dust is a minor problem. There are some swallows' nests on the ceiling, but they are not currently threatening the paintings.
Recommendations
To prevent future conservation problems, it is recommended that the following measures be put in place.
The protective bush should be left in place.
Livestock should be prevented from entering the shelter.
Strangers should only visit the site with the permission of, and accompanied by the farm owners.
Large groups of people should not be taken to the site; they will create excessive dust that will settle on and obscure the paintings. The site is also very small, meaning that a large group of people could easily damage the paintings.
Conservation needed: no
Monitoring plan established: no
