Unknown site, possibly ancient. Just to the north of Ings Point, there is a, presumably natural hill feature adjascent to the old shoreline, what is now marshland. Around the edges of this hill, there are several large stones. The site looks similar to the nearby Hunter Hill megalithic site.
But the Ings Point site is smaller. Both sites are situated in places that were once right next to the water.
