The 2.2 meter high monolith, located in the Peak District National Park near Manchester, UK, has a striking, right-angled triangular shape that slants up towards geographic south. The orientation and inclination of the slope is aligned to the altitude of the Sun at mid-summer.

Would that be pointing South + or - how many degrees?
Would that be in 2000 BC or 2012?

The article referenced the stone being put in place about 4000 years ago, or around 2000 B.C.

I cannot elaborate about the direction or degree of angle ...
