Bivallate rath is a prehistoric fortified settlement located in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. The monument is characterised by its double bank and ditch system, which defines it as a bivallate earthwork of Iron Age or early medieval date. Such raths were typically domestic and defensive settlements occupied by farming communities, and their dual ramparts suggest a significant level of investment in fortification. The site preserves evidence of settlement practice in the Irish archaeological record during a period of considerable social organisation.
