According to local lore, two young Aboriginal lovers jumped to their deaths from the top of this rocky outcrop while being pursued by the young woman's tribe, as she was promised to one of her elders. There are also graves of local settlers. Picnic facilities and an interpretive sign.
Named after George "The Barber" Clark, an escaped convict and stock thief who lived in the vicinity of the lagoon from 1826-1831. Ask at the Boggabri Museum for the location of the obelisk that marks the general location of George Clark's hut and stockyards. Also ask at the museum regarding fossicking around the lagoon. Barber's Pinnacle is a hill just north of the lagoon.
