One (E2) of 12 Companion Stones located next to guide stoops. The sculpture is formed of a low stone in the shape of a wedge. It has a poem by Ann Atkinson on the flat top. The guide stoop is to the west of the companion stone in grassland. The stones were unveiled and exhibited at the Moorland Centre until mid-July 2010, giving people the opportunity to see them before they were transported to their moorland sites.
