Open translation for this passage
καὶ Τροφώνιον μὲν ἐνταῦθα ἐδέξατο ἡ γῆ διαστᾶσα, ἔνθα ἐστὶν ἐν τῷ ἄλσει τῷ ἐν Λεβαδείᾳ βόθρος τε Ἀγαμήδους καλούμενος καὶ πρὸς αὐτῷ στήλη·
Main clause: Τροφώνιον is the accusative object of ἐδέξατο, with ἡ γῆ as subject and διαστᾶσα as a circumstantial aorist participle. ἔνθα introduces a locative relative/adverbial clause; τῷ ἐν Λεβαδείᾳ modifies ἄλσει, while βόθρος and στήλη are coordinated nominative predicates/contents of the locative ἐστίν construction. The exact attachment of πρὸς αὐτῷ is mildly uncertain.
