Rath, church (site of) & graveyard is an early Christian ecclesiastical site located in Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. The site comprises the remains of a church and associated graveyard, representing religious activity during the early medieval period when Christianity became established across Ireland. The monument occupies what was likely a defensible location, as indicated by the rath element in its designation, a characteristic Irish ringfort form that frequently served as the focus for early monastic settlements. The survival of both church and burial ground at this location testifies to the continuity of Christian practice and worship in the region during the early Christian centuries.
