What is recorded here

Two stones stand 2.2m apart on a sloping pasture near the Argideen river, the larger rising 2.65m while the smaller reaches 1.2m. They align north-northeast to south-southwest, forming a 4.5m line that has watched the land since before records began. A third, anomalous group waits 48m to the north-northeast, suggesting the pair belongs to a wider conversation rather than standing alone.
