The octagonal bronze plate is fixed to an octagonal concrete base, in a tessellated brick-paved lookout, just off from the Black Mountain car park. It is very close to the 'Telstra Tower'. There are very limited views from this point, as the trees have grown up to obscure the view.
From the centre of the plate, and then proceeding in a clock-wise direction are the following details, directions, and locations. [Hopefully correctly transcribed - errors are mine - so please let me know for correcting.]
