Dual court tomb is a Neolithic megalithic monument located in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland, dating to the fourth millennium BCE. This monument type, characteristic of the Irish Neolithic period, comprises two distinct court spaces associated with burial chambers, representing a sophisticated architectural tradition unique to the Irish and British Isles during the early farming communities. The dual-court arrangement indicates a period of monumental construction when communal burial practices and ritual activity were central to Neolithic societies in Ulster. Such monuments remain significant archaeological evidence for understanding early settlement patterns, social organisation, and religious practices in prehistoric Ireland.
