Description

A sloping excavated cut in pale soil leads down to a dark opening framed by large stones, with loose blocks and rubble inside. Grass and scrubby vegetation grow on the ground at the top of the cut, and a large stone lies on the right edge. The view is taken from above, looking down into the cut.
