But it's been suggested i decide if the pieces should be relocated. I don't have the right to do so. Especially as it means the pieces will be taken out of their original context.

Keeping them in their original context is an important point, and unless they’re likely to be stolen, damaged or destroyed that’s probably where they should stay.

Good to read you managed to talk to the land owner, and maybe any further conversations you have with him/her could include (if you haven’t done so already) all your concerns (perhaps along with the concerns/interests of others such as those here.)
