A body of limestone forms a low knoll projecting above the surrounding glacial till near the centre of Lot 1893, 6 kilometres southwest of Beverley. The limestone strikes 075 degrees for an exposed length of 76 metres with widths of up to 30 metres and dips 55 degrees south.
The deposit is comprised of thinly bedded, fine grained, light grey limestone containing lenses and laminae of white chert. A chip sample taken across a width of 30 metres contained 52.40% CaO, 0.35% MgO, 5.50% insolubles, 0.30% R2O3, 0.11% Fe2O3, 0.005% MnO, 0.04% P2O5, 0.008% sulphur and 41.53% ignition loss (EMPR Annual Review 1957, p.85).
A few tonnes of limestone were quarried sometime earlier this century and burnt on site in a kiln to produce lime.
