What is recorded here
That is the exact size of the stone, the shape of the stone, and the reason the stone still stands. The story is a visible place, not a hidden claim. A person can see it, judge it and tell the truth about it.
In pasture, on break in S-facing slope, at foot of Hungry Hill. Rectangular stone, aligned NNE-SSW (H 1.1m; 0.8m x 0.58m) leans slightly to W.
