The Pleiades or the Seven Sisters. If you've got a pair of binoculars, go and have a look - there are a lot more than 7 of them!

It looks like the three stars that make up Orion's belt.
I suggest that you go onto www.stellrium.com And download the version rite for your windows. Its basically the night sky in an interactive program.

A little more detail would be helpful; like where exactly in the west, how many stars, roughly what shape do they form.
There are quite a few stars out there you know.

I just reset my astronomy software to the UK. It looks like the belt of Orion. The Pleiades is directly overhead.
