Description

A rocky, sloping excavation runs down toward calm water on the right. Exposed stone walls and a low built platform of rough blocks sit among scattered boulders and bare soil. Two thin poles stand upright on the slope and near the shore, and scrubby bushes grow on the high ground at the top left.
