Stone Row (Alignment) in Powys
In the 19th Century a line of toppled stones was reported but by 1957 only one remained.
Update October 2019: This now destroyed stone row is featured on the Stone Rows of Great Britain website - see their entry for Cae Garreg. The SRoGB notes that this was: "a probable single stone row measuring 27.4m long that included 8 large stones situated on an elongated natural knoll. The row was orientated east to west and stood in an area with another standing stone with which it may have been directly associated and a barrow".
A single standing stone at SN 96377 77641, said to be the one survivor of a possible four poster associated with the row, is recorded as Coflein NPRN 304952 (Henriw, Standing Stone; Dau Friach a Dau Law).
