A trig point (also known as a Trigonometric Station) typically consists of a black disc on top of four metal legs or concrete pillar, resembling a navigation beacon. It is also accompanied by a metal disc, which is located directly below the centre point of the tripod or on top of the pillar itself.

The location of this trig point has been sourced from https://maps.six.nsw.gov.au/ and has the TS prefix, identifying it as a trig station. It is also identified as a trig station on maps.six.nsw.gov.au/ as the TS code in the title
