We did walk up to the Kinnerton Castle Mound, which is actually on private land, but can be seen (and photographed) from various vantage points in the village.
The first stone (the recumbent one) we had difficulty spotting as it was buried in tall grass and weeds, but did spot it reasonably quickly. The other is on the opposite side of the road, in a lush field of pasture, and a very pretty spot.
We thought we were on the footpath as we walked up to the stone, but walking back to the field gate, found the sign actually pointed along the field boundary/hedge-line to the west of the still standing stone. Whoops - sorry.

Of these two stones, one is recumbent and one standing. One, Kinnerton Court Stone II lies on the western side of the road running north into Kinnerton Village, the other to the south east, towards the eastern edge of the field which contains it.
The stone at SO 2449 6281 is recumbent, and at the time of our visit was partially hidden by tall grass and weeds. Our first impression was that it was just a boulder by the side of the road, but this stone is recorded as Archwilio PRN 1069.
Crossing the road, the standing stone, recorded as Kinnerton Court Stone I and Archwilio PRN 1070, can be found at SO 24564 62735.
Both stones are recorded as Coflein NPRN 306391.
