Blackrock Rd,, Cookstown, Co.Tyrone

Beaghmore Stone Circles are a reflection of the ritual and spiritual life in the early Bronze Age. Archaeologists believe that Beaghmore Stone Circles date back to around 1500BC. There are 7 stone circles and alignments along with several cairns on this spectacular preserved site. It has been suggested that the circles and alignments have some connection with astronomy but a more popular theory is that they may well have served some function in fertility rites

Located on the East Sperrins Driving Route.
