Two stone circles and possible alignment is a Early Bronze Age stone circle complex located near Strabane in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. The site comprises two separate circular arrangements of stones, which represent significant ritual or ceremonial monuments typical of Early Bronze Age communities in the region, broadly dating to the third millennium BC. The possible alignment between the circles suggests deliberate spatial planning by their builders, indicating sophisticated understanding of landscape and celestial observation. Such stone circle complexes are comparatively rare in Ulster and provide important evidence for Bronze Age settlement patterns and religious practice in northern Ireland.
