Description

Taken from inside a dark vaulted stone passage, looking out through an arch to a stone wall and bright sky. Two figures stand in the shadowed entrance, each with cylindrical headgear, one holding a long pole. A crouched figure in a hat sits near the centre, beside a stone post and a bollard, with a plaque on the wall.
