Description

A pair of tall wooden doors with a diagonal lattice of raised lines and small studs fills the doorway. Iron fittings, including a handle and hinge straps, are visible on the leaves. Above the doorway, rough stones and a timber beam overhang the wall, and strong sunlight casts diagonal shadows across the boards.

A pair of heavy wooden doors with diamond-lattice carving fills the frame, fitted with an iron latch, a handle bar and studs. Strong diagonal shadows fall across the panels from a projecting beam and wooden lintel above. Rough stone masonry surrounds the doorway, and flat paving stones lie in the foreground.
