It has been moved around the town but it is hoped that it is now in something like its original place, Presumably, it originally came from further afield before it was set up as a marker. The plaque attached gives some details:
"The Tarry Stone at which sports were held before 1506 after many travels was returned to this its ancient site in 1937"
Given how large it is, moving it around would have taken some effort and a good reason to bother.

This is well worth tracking down as you stroll past shops and galleries. there's not much to say but it does make you think of the long history this village has.

This sarsen stone (3ft high and 4ft long) started out in the 15th centurt as a boundary marker for the edge of the Abbott of Cirencester, but was moved in 1506 to mark a gathering point for those taking part in sports in the village of Cookham on Assumption Day. It has also been known as the Cookham Stone. It has been moved several times within the village but was put recently into its current (and what is thought to have been its original) location at the head of the High Street close to both the Stanley Spencer Gallery and the Bel and The Dragon pub. There is an explanatory plaque mounted on it. This is a fascinating item of local history well worth seeing if you're in the area.
