Description

A wall of rubble masonry, built of large and medium stones set in earth, fills the upper background. A long dressed block lies at the left against the wall base, and a small upright block stands in the open ground to the right. The excavated ground in the foreground is uneven, with loose stones and broken masonry scattered across it.
