Description

Stone-built structure of rough, pale masonry with several arched openings along the left side, one of them a deep archway leading into a shaded interior. A tall square tower rises at the centre with a small window and a chimney-like cap on top, and a stepped stair runs up beside the arch on the right. Scrubby bushes grow beside the wall in the foreground, under a blue sky.
