Description

A deep, narrow cut in pale soil runs away from the viewer, with a dark rectangular opening in its left wall and a smaller cavity lower down. Loose stones lie on the spoil at the upper right, and a wooden frame sits at the top edge beyond the cut. A rounded dark hollow appears at the lower right, and the floor of the cut is in shadow.
