Well thanks to Ferg the riddle of Monaghan has been solved.
It would appear that many of the fixtures were based on Italian quattorcento prototypes. Note the Baptistery font and compare with that of Siena and the pulpit and that of Pisa. Also note the two rather fine looking statues of Christ and St John the Baptist just outside of the sanctuary and compare the arrangement and type with the examples in Orvieto.
