Description

A view across low, weathered limestone walls and rough foundation blocks of a ruined building, with bare rock and scattered stones filling the middle ground. A line of walls runs back toward a flat, levelled area at the top of the picture, and scrubby bushes and a wire fence with posts appear at the far edge. No people are shown.

Description, scan 2
Low, irregular stone foundations and scattered blocks of a ruined building run across the view, with walls crossing diagonally through the centre. Dark soil and patches of scrub lie between the stones, and a levelled surface sits higher in the background beside a few fence posts along the top edge.
