Favor Royal Bawn is a post-medieval fortification located in Dungannon, County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. The site comprises an earthwork enclosure typical of the bawn form, a fortified farmstead characteristic of the Tudor and early Stuart period in Ireland. Constructed as a defensive settlement for English planters or English-aligned settlers, the bawn would have provided protection for both residence and livestock during a period of significant plantation activity and potential conflict in Ulster. The monument survives as an archaeological earthwork feature and represents the material expression of early modern English colonial settlement strategies in Ireland.
