Its companion stone, once set roughly twelve metres away, fares little better: propped against a fence rather than rooted in the ground. Together they mark a site that has been quietly unmade.

The two stones originally occupied the corner of a field at a sharp bend in a river, a placement that may have been deliberate, since prehistoric monuments are frequently sited in relation to water or to natural boundaries in the landscape. By 1929, when the Office of Public Works recorded them in their topographical files, both were still present and their spacing, about forty feet apart, was noted. The disturbance had already happened, however. In 1926, three years before that record was made, both stones were shifted from their original positions. One was buried in the earth. The other was simply laid against a fence, where it remained as a kind of accidental relic rather than a monument.
