Description

A low curved line of stones, large and small, outlines a roughly circular area of cleared earth in an excavation. A wooden A-frame stands in the background, and a small pole marker stands on the cleared ground. Loose spoil and stony ground surround the site, with low hills and a building on the horizon.
