Stone Row / Alignment in Herefordshire

Centred on the given grid referance is a triple row of stones of various condition. They stand in a amazing posistion on a nne/ssw alignment running for about a kilometre. They appear to be almost uniform in placement though some stones are missing. I have counted at least fourteen stones in this monument.
