PSR J1420-6048 is a young radio pulsar recently discovered within the error box of the EGRET source 3EG 1420-6038. The pulse period is 68 ms, and both the spin-down energy and flux are as large as those of the pulsars in the TeV gamma ray detected nebulae, Crab and PSR B1706-44. Thus PSR J1420-6048 is a good candidate TeV gamma ray source, and so we observed it with the CANGAROO-I I telescope in March and June 2002. No significant excess of gamma ray events was detected, and we have placed an upper limit on
