Has indeed been relocated, about 1ft, now on S face of wall dividing the gardens. Access via side gate leading into S-most cottage. Owners of the other cottage said they had the wall built, and asked builders to reinstate the FB, as close as poss to original level and position. Having reviewed the photos on OSBM it has evidently been that way since at least Jan 2005.

Condition given as good but must have been moved - is on a modern brick wall dividing the properties.
