is an old Aboriginal scar tree. You will
need to walk around it to the other side
— with your back to the carpark — to see
the scar. The traditional owners of the
land, the Wurundjeri, had remarkable
ways of creating tools without destroying
the landscape. A large piece of woodybark
was removed without damaging
the inner core of the trunk allowing the
tree to survive. It was then fashioned
into a canoe or shield.
