The second photograph of Albany Cathedral is very interesting for it shows another example of an altar rails crossing the entire width of the church as in Cobh Cathedral. The great Professor Cathal O’Neill, at the Midelton oral hearing, gave us to understand that the rail in Cobh is unresolved and may not even have been installed with the aid of an architect. This was an aberation he intends to rectify. I am not sure how much he knows about the neo-gothic. He did not seem to be aware that it was a fairly standard feature in such churches.

There are of course no altar rails in the Albany Cathedral now.
