Important Aboriginal Ceremonial Ground, unusual in being close to a Waterhole. This probably reflects the particular Dreaming lore associated with the site. It was used up until the 1870s or possibly 1880s. Nudgee Bora Ground is one of the very few surviving Bora Grounds in south-east Queensland and has a walkway and signage explaining the resources and archaeological finds in the vicinity.
