Stacked unpainted wooden frames of pale timber leaning in tall piles against a plain whitewashed concrete wall, with scattered wood offcuts, shavings and a coil of yellow rope on the ground and top. A rough grey stone block sits at the left edge. No people or ritual activity are visible; the frames appear to be stored building or woodwork material.2007-12-06October 19 20132013-10-19Looking straight up at a thatched roof interior.

No people are visible in the scene.2007-07-05A dusty outdoor stone yard with several stacks of pale grey and dark granite slabs and blocks strapped into wooden crates and frames on bare ground.

Weathered sandstone walls with carved lattice-style window screens and fallen blocks lie scattered across the ground beneath dense green foliage and trees.
