Bogallan Wood Cairn is a Bronze Age funerary monument located approximately 105 metres south-west of The Croft in Ross-shire, Scotland. The cairn represents a form of burial practice characteristic of the Bronze Age period in the Scottish Highlands, when such stone-built mounds were constructed to mark the graves of deceased individuals or communities. The monument's physical structure consists of a mounded accumulation of stones typical of cairn construction from this era. As a recorded archaeological site within the Highlands and Islands region, it contributes to our understanding of Bronze Age settlement patterns and mortuary practices in northern Scotland.
