Openings
The only opening in the refrescador
is 84 cm wide with a stone lintel and
earth threshold. Each 1.24 m high
jamb is made of two similar sized
pieces of stone laid on top of each
other on their smallest side. The lintel
is made of a single stone. The stones
in this opening are the most dressed
in the terrace wall, with the singular
feature that they were dressed like
ashlar on the outside while inside
they are in their natural state of large
blocks of stone.
Accessory Items
Inside there is a horseshoe-shaped
stone bench. Outside a low wall and
two terrace walls form the boundary
to a space in front of the refrescador
which is accessed up a stepped
frontal ramp. There are two stone
benches in this site each resting
against a terrace wall.
The terrace walls near the refrescador
have highly dressed rough stone
which finishes to the very upper row.
