A stone row, or stone alignment, is a line of megalithic standing stones set at intervals along a common axis, or several axes, usually dating from the later Neolithic or Bronze Age. Three or more aligned stones can make a row. Rows may be single or grouped, and range from a few metres to several kilometres long, with stones up to about 2 metres tall, though most are smaller. Archaeologists treat each row as a discrete feature, and the word "alignment" means only that the stones line up with each other, not that they point to anything. The regional background, “Stone rows and alignments”, is given below.
