Tuamgraney / Tomgraney / Tuaim Greine / Tuaim Gréine

Pike (1989) reports it as "inspected but not catalogued"; no other details given. The Phaidon guide (Mehling, 1985) dates the church to the 10th century with 12th-century additions. The entry for Tuamgraney in the CRSBI [https://www.crsbi.ac.uk/view-item?i=15302] [accessed 26 April 2023] notes and illustrates "a plain font of uncertain date […] In W section of church. Plain hemispherical bowl with a broad fillet at the rim, the sides flaring outwards slightly at the bottom. Columnar support resting on square base, broken at one corner, and with circular mouldings around hollow for base of column. No sculptural decoration. Date uncertain […] Dimensions h. of bowl 0.35 m diam. of bowl 0.57 m". It is an unremarkable object that looks more like a holy-water stoup; it consists of a roughly hemispherical basin with a broad flat moulding below the upper rim as its only decoration; raised on a plain tound pedestal base and a round-to-square lower base; stands on a modern plinth; one of the corners of the lower base shows considerable damage. No cover present. [NB: the shape, size and location by the entranceway suggest this be a stoup, not a font].
