I've never come across this before. Looks to be a standard NE-SW stone pair except the northern stone is wider than it is high.
Not quite the same but worth mentioning that Perthshire pairs , which tend to be E-W , the most easterly or northerly is more rounded and the other more pillar like . It's not 100% but not far off .If it was originally set this way, I'm just wondering if the intention might have been to keep it below the horizon line to the NE, for a viewer at the SW side. Or perhaps, simply establishing direction was in this case more important than "standing" the stone?
