Drumskinny, Stone circle and archaeological site in Fermanagh and Omagh District, Northern Ireland.
The stone circle contains 39 stones arranged in a 13-meter diameter formation with a central cairn and a westward stone alignment.
Archaeological excavations in 1962 revealed flint tools, scrapers, and pottery fragments dating back to approximately 2000 BC at the site.
The name originates from Irish Droim Scine, which translates to ridge of the knife, reflecting the ancient connections to Gaelic heritage.
The site features designated off-road parking facilities and maintained gravel paths that lead visitors to the fenced stone formation area.
Seven stones in the circle display MOF monograms, added during restoration work by the Ministry of Finance to mark their authenticity.

Northern Ireland tells its story through stones, cliffs, and memories. From the Giant's Causeway to Derry's walls, each place seems filled with stories where Celtic myths, medieval heritage, and traces of the modern world intertwine. Belfast, once an industrial hub turned cultural center, showcases its museums and markets to the breeze coming from the Irish Sea. The landscapes of County Antrim enchant with basalt columns, suspension bridges, and cliffs battered by waves. Further inland, stone circles, monasteries, and distilleries extend the journey into a territory where each site links nature and memory. Exploring Northern Ireland is like walking through centuries that are open to the sky, between the legends of Ulster's ancient kings and the contemporary echoes of a resilient land.
