This mural is (probably) a companion to the Nelson McCausland book Patrick, Apostle Of Ulster: A Protestant View Of Patrick (Amazon), published in 1997. Here is a 2013 blog post by McCausland that perhaps gives a précis of the book and is in keep with the text in the panel out of shot to the left, which reads, “”All the exciting and glamourous features that tradition has added to Patrick must be removed if we wish to know what he was really like. And yet the historical Saint Patrick is more interesting and more worth studying than all these later gaudy traditions …” Bishop R[ichard]. P[atrick]. C[rosland]. Hanson”
With graffiti reading “had no feet” – a comment on the figure to the left.
