E entrance point of Lester Cove, Andvord Bay, Danco Coast, was roughly charted in 1913-14 by Ferguson, who applied the name Forbes Hill to a spur of the plateau escarpment S of the point, possibly after J.D. Forbes (Forbes Glacier, q.v.). Named Forbes Point, referring to the present feature following air photography by the Falkland Islands and Dependencies Aerial Survey Expedition, 1956-57.
