E.Christ. Rath is a multivallate ringfort located in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. The monument comprises concentric earthen banks and ditches characteristic of early medieval Irish raths, which typically served as defended homesteads or small settlements during the Early Christian period, roughly from the fifth to twelfth centuries. The site's multiple defensive lines suggest a structure of some status within the local community hierarchy. Such raths remain important archaeological evidence for settlement patterns and social organisation in early medieval Ulster.
