FURTHER information regarding the position of the uncharted rock existing at the entrance to Greville Harbour, the existence of which was published in Notice to Mariners No. 68 of 1920, has been obtained.

The rock, which has 1 ft. of water over it at low-water ordinary spring tides, is situated 057° distance 1·5 cables from the pinnacle of Entrance Rock, off Ragged Point. Entrance Rock, the height of which was recently shown as 4 ft., is found to be about 80 ft. in height above M.H.W.S.

The symbol for a rock having less than 6 ft. of water over it should be inserted on charts in the above position.
