Description

A stone boundary wall with an arched wooden door runs across the foreground of a grassy field. Behind it stand a low flat-roofed building, a round domed structure with a chimney, and a long arcaded range with a flat roof facing the sea. Bushes and trees grow between the buildings, with a rocky hill and a flat coastline stretching away to the left.
