Found in the wall of the south porch of St Andrew's church when it was taken down in 1860 (Peacock 1864, 221; Fowler 1867–70a, 190; J. T. Fowler MS) during restoration of the church by Ewan Christian ((—) 1861–2, xxxiv–xxxv). A rubbing was done of the stone by F. George from which J. T. Fowler made a drawing on 11 December 1868. This drawing has been cut out of a page of Fowler's drawings (J. T. Fowler MS): it has not been traced. Fowler was later believed to have seen the stone 'on a rock work' (Davies 1914–15, 162) or 'on a rockery in a garden' in the town (Davies 1926, 14). By his own account (Fowler 1896, 3) this was in the vicarage garden. The fragment was already thought lost by 1899 (Haverfield and Greenwell 1899, 129).

Described generally as 'a similar stone' to Northorpe 1 (Haverfield and Greenwell 1899, 129) and specifically as 'curious...ornamented with interlaced work somewhat similar to that which may now be seen over the priest's door...it had originally formed part of a Saxon tombstone' (Peacock 1864, 221), and as 'a fragment of the same pattern' as Northorpe (Fowler 1867–70a, 190).

Appendix C item (lost stones for which no illustration has survived).

Both the approximate comparison with the decorative pattern on the Romanesque tympanum (Kirton in Lindsey 1) and the precise comparison with the fragmentary cover from Northorpe (Ills. 308–9), with which it was juxtaposed in Fowler's drawings (J. T. Fowler MS), make it certain that this fragment was part of a grave-cover of Lindsey type discussed in Chapter V, and that its decoration was multiple lines of simple pattern F interlace in a repetitive figure-of-eight pattern (cf. Fig. 14).
