Make a concise location description of a depressing scene outside a town ruins with posts, a wall, and a gate.

Ruined and splintered wooden posts make up what was once the city's western gate, which has been completely caved in as if by brute force. Several scorch marks mar the ground around the wood, testifying to the gate's strength and resistance before being pummeled down. Portions of the wall are also heavily broken around the hinges, indicating that perhaps the wall fell before the gate did.
