${\mathrm{SrHo}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{4}$ is a geometrically frustrated magnet in which the magnetic Ho${}^{3+}$ ions form honeycomb layers connected through a network of zigzag chains. At low-temperature two distinct types of short-range magnetic order can be inferred from single-crystal diffraction data, collected using both polarized and unpolarized neutrons. In the ($hk0$) plane the …
