What is recorded here

Five stones once formed a complete circle on the bog slope below Barrabog mountain, though only four remain visible today. The missing entrance stone likely fell or was buried, breaking the neat NE-SW alignment that still measures 2.3m across. A short stone row and distant cairn suggest this was never an isolated marker but a small ceremonial landscape where people moved between points rather than gathering around one center.

On bog-covered S-facing slope of S extension of Barrabog mountain. Four stones survive measuring 0.8m to 1.3m L, 0.2m T and 0.45m to 1m H; N entrance stone leans heavily inwards. Internal measurement along main axis, aligned NE-SW, is 2.3m. Part of complex also comprises of stone row (CO090-00601-) c. 4m to S and cairn (CO090-00603-) c. 11m to SSE.
