Rath is a ringfort located in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. Ringforts of this type are earthwork enclosures typically consisting of one or more concentric banks and ditches, dating primarily to the Early Christian period, roughly from the fifth to twelfth centuries. The monument represents a common settlement form across medieval Ireland, serving as a defended homestead for a family or small community. Such sites are significant archaeological indicators of settlement patterns, social organisation, and land use during the Early Christian period in Ulster.
