Shaun, look back 2 yrs 4 mo in this thread and you'll see a brief discussion of this view. In my opinion it's the outlying LF "trench"- like all those on the summit it was just a parapet - (here arrowed in the map from Maurice). It no longer exists. It is, I think, the "trench" in which the LF surendered just after 12:00 noon and which Jan Cilliers of the Pretoria Cdo briefly held. I think it likely that the two boer graves you'll see on the satellite image at -28.64900, 29.51968 may be dug into this feature.

Thank you Sturgy! For those of us who will unfortunately never visit Spion Kop, these photos are terrific for visiting it vicariously!
