"das Nordwestrondell war mit dem instabilen Felsen zur Gänze abgerutscht und würde mit Hilfe einer leichten Holzarchitektur wiederangedeutet"
Text outlining the restoration of a castle. I'm thinking along the lines of "The castle wall here had partially collapsed and the north-west roundel had slid down completely with the instable rock. The ***outline of the structure was recreated *** with the help of a lightweight wooden construction." But I'm not entirely happy with this... Grateful for any suggestions

echo
The northwest roundel along with the unstable rocky slope had been swept away by a landslide - the new timber structure replacing it echoed the former structure.
