Stone Row / Alignment in Herefordshire

A stone first spotted on the Ordinance Survey first edition map for the area is on further inspection the well weathered remains of a standing stone. Now just 0.5 m in height i think it was never more than 2.0m tall. Not known to be on a parish or other known boundary. Purpose and period unknown, or is it.
