Pergandes Sheepyards
About this campsite
The picnic area is located 1km from Marshall Rock, near Bencubbin, in the Western Wheatbelt. To build the sheepyards, Ted Pergande harvested slabs of granite from a nearby rock formation by heating the rock and then rapidly cooling it with water. The rock cleaved into slabs, which were transported the short distance to their present location. Safety: The older picnic table is unstable and near collapse. User the newer table to avoid injury.
