Update November 2019: This now destroyed row is featured on the Stone Rows of Great Britain website - see their entry for Longstone Farm. The SRoGB describes the row as having measured 70m, and included three large orthostats. The stones were "recorded immediately before their removal in 1981". The SRoGB includes a plan of the row, provided by the National Mapping Programme (Cornwall Council) and gives a link to HER 37154 (LONGSTONE - Bronze Age stone alignment). The area was bulldozed in 1981 to make way for a quarry.
