Update October 2019: This alignment is featured on the Stone Rows of Great Britain website - see their entry for Kenidjack Common, which includes a description, plans of the row (including one from a survey carried out in May 2018), photographs of the row and the individual stones, access information and a list of online resources for more information.
The row is also recorded as Pastscape Monument No. 421703 and as HER 16135 (BOTALLACK COMMON - Prehistoric holed stone, Bronze Age holed stone) on the Cornwall and Scilly HER. The row is also scheduled as Historic England List Entry No. 1006755 (Holed stones on Kenidjack Common).
The SRoGB also includes photographs and a description of a fifth stone or outlier, 100m north of the row, which may have originally formed part of the row. This stone has been broken in the past and repair. The SRoGB also illustrates the limited sea views visible from the row.
