Generate for me a description of a foreboding scene outside a town yard with a pit, a fence, and timbers.

The ground here is uneven, rising and falling with no seeming pattern. Gaping pits where blocks of marble have been cut free lie hidden behind high ground, unintentional traps for the unwary. A spiked fence separates the work yard from the surrounding ring road above. Near the compound wall is a deep pit covered with rough timbers, a staircase leading down into the darkness.
