General description of the chase / cuvity

Longitudinal vertical imprint at the SW corner of the NW jamb, at a distance of 0.32 m. from the vertical imprint to the NE. The base of the timber element is not preserved in situ. The chase seems to be "framed" by rubble stones. Its current appearance is the result of restoration.
