Description, scan 2: A narrow excavated cutting runs between tall, roughly dressed stone blocks and rubble-covered banks, with dark soil on the floor. At the far end, an arched opening leads into darkness. Rough ground and a few stones lie along the top edge under an empty sky, and a small pale disc is visible on one block.
