Beneath the dark wall, a wooden fence runs horizontally across the frame. The fence is made of vertical planks, closely spaced together, with a narrow horizontal board at its base. The texture of the wood grain is apparent, suggesting natural material.

The ground in front of the building or fence is dark and appears to be either paved or covered with gravel or small stones.
