Not listed in the SMR (1992) or the 1996 RMP. This record is for the original location of a gable finial from Inis Cealtra (Holy Island), Co. Clare, now in the OPW depot in Athenry, Co. Galway where it has SMR number (GA084-151010-). A drawing by Macalister (1916-17, pl. 10) and later by De Paor (SMR file, List 1, no. 30) shows the finial to have an elaborate cross at the centre. The exact original location of the finial is unknown. Portion of another decorated finial is depicted alongside this in Macalister (pl. 10). This is currently located in St. Caimin’s church (CL029-009011-). A third heart-shaped finial (current location unknown) is described by Macalister (ibid., 168, no. 98, pl. XXIV).
