Earl Erne, or, in full, Earl Erne of Crom Castle, is a title in the Peerage of Ireland. The subsidiary titles held along with the earldom are: Viscount Erne of Crom Castle (created 1781), Baron Erne of Crom Castle (1768) and Baron Fermanagh (1876). The Barony of Fermanagh is the only one that is not in the Peerage of Ireland; it is instead in the Peerage of the United Kingdom.
