Description

A tall pointed stone arch dominates the view, its voussoirs visible around a dark recess behind. In front, a low wall of rough stones and sacks stands to the left, while two small folding tables display scattered objects and fragments. A spotted dog walks across the bare earth in the centre, and loose stone blocks lie in the right foreground.

English

A large pointed arch of dressed stone frames a dark opening, with rubble and sacks in front. Two small tables hold scattered finds, and a spotted dog walks across the dirt ground at the foreground.
