Description

Stone walls of rough, flat-faced blocks run across an excavated trench, their lower courses partly buried in soil. Behind them a heap of excavated earth and stones rises to the top of the frame. A small rounded stone structure stands at the right, and a dark rod leans against the walls at the left.
