Talk:Commandment Rock

Verification needed
I've added the verify tag to this article, as a word-of-mouth account by a descendent of an unnamed sailor is not enough of a citable reference.

The only reference I can find to this rock is in this PDF from the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service: http://www.nationalparks.nsw.gov.au/PDFs/pom_final_lanecove.pdf

This mentions that the Fifth Commandment (only) was carved into the rock by, reputedly by a "Thomas Tunbridge" in the late 1800s. The account in this article says all 10 were carved by the children of a deserting sailor.

This is one of the cases where these photo request categories might be more useful than just picking random articles. --Scott Davis Talk 00:40, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

Rewrote Article
I rewrote the article based on the source. There might be an element of truth to the original article based on this mention: "Take a break at Commandment Rock, where a family lived on the flat rock in 1866 with a small vegetable and strawberry farm." More info needed. John Dalton

Photos
I'm planning to add some photos. Just for now, I'll add here (because this point is OR), two photos showing that the rock is oriented exactly north-south, which might have been important to Aborigines. (The elevation shown is wrong - probably 10m.) Wikiain (talk) 04:25, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
