What is recorded here

Nine stones still stand on the north and east, leaning into Donegal rain while the rest vanished into legend or rubble. A broken wall stretches thirty metres beside them, built of flat boulders and upright rocks, as if people once drew a line around the dead and walked away. Davies saw a central grave in 1940; nobody has found it since. The pasture keeps its secrets, but the circle never stopped marking the place where living and lost still share the same ground.

Marked 'Cloghbrack Burial Ground' on the 2nd and 3rd editions of the OS 6-inch maps. The site consists of part of a circle of standing stones (DG084-002001-), the N and E sides only surviving. Nine stones survive. The interior is covered with a light scatter of stones but there is no evidence for the 'central grave' recorded here by Davies in 1940. A discontinuous wall runs for 33.5m N-S from the highest surviving stone of the circle. The wall is made up of orthostats and flat-topped boulders. 19m E of this wall, a second wall runs roughly NNE-SSW for 15m. The site is located in rough pasture with rock outcrop and blanket bog.

A stone circle and burial ground, likely dating to the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age, indicating ritual or funerary activity in the landscape. Its partial survival highlights the need for further investigation into megalithic traditions in the region.
