Despite what the inscription on the protective fence says, this is neither the original stone nor the original location. Baker and Woodward reported the original stone to be missing as of the late 1800s, and DAR records show that the current stone was placed at this location in 1920. The original stone was located about 0.35 miles northwest of this replacement. According to Woodward, the original stone was located on "the east side, and very close to" King Street "on the eastern side of Shuter's Hill, in a subdivision" now called Rosemont.
