Description

Low stone walls stand on a cleared, dug area in the foreground, with a higher stone face along the right edge above a dark cutting. In the middle distance a small shelter and a tripod-like frame stand among scrubby trees, with flat open land and low hills behind. A small figure is visible near the wall at centre right.
