Now, that is impressive even for me (and I’ve been to Arctic many times)

In case you're interested, I found the Merlin's Sheela na Gig. My OSINT skills proved useful here.
It's on the south wall, the lowest ogee window.
She's tiny, but you can just see her sitting upside down on a shield. Didn’t have my camera with me, so only mobile photoPlease be nice to her if you come to visit; she is the tiniest one in #Ireland.

During my efforts to locate Merlin Castle's Sheela na Gig, I stumbled upon the Digital Heritage project (https://www.digitalheritageage.com/) that includes 3D models of various Irish archaeological and historical objects. Here is their #Galway catalogue: (https://sketchfab.com/galway3d). I wish they included the Lynch Castle figures, but this one is good too, and you can actually look up close and personal at Merlin's Sheela na Gig here: (https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/merlin-park-sheela-na-gig-dafa6e042ab34ff5b7d045f134f739b7).
