Pensioners Hill: 10 Aboriginal totem poles stand tall on Pensioners Hill. The totem poles were handcrafted by local artists in 2012. They represent significant people, dreamtime legend and customs of the Kamilaroi Tribe including the Biamee Spirit, the Red Chief Shield and the Rainbow Serpent.

On top of the hill a wedge-tailed eagle soars over the township. Acclaimed metal artist Andrew Whitehead used scrap metal for this majestic sculpture which complements the hand-carved eagle seats created by the local woodworker, Dan Birkett. Kaputhin the Eagle is said to be one of the Kamilaroi totems.

Large heritage sandstone sculptures also depict the cultural heritage of the area. Find out more about Pensioners Hill Lookout here.
