Description

Stone foundation walls of several rooms are exposed across an excavated ground surface, with low rubble walls and cut trenches running through the foreground and middle distance. A pale smooth patch and a small cut sit in the centre of the foreground, and a rounded dark object lies among the walls at the right. Open grassy slopes and a hill rise in the background.
