Four stone circles and alignment is a Bronze Age stone circle complex located near Omagh in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. The site consists of multiple circles of standing stones arranged in a linear pattern, representing a significant example of prehistoric ritual monumentality in the Ulster region.
