Looking through the survey photos on the NBHS (NIAH) site it appears Mr Boru is not there anymore.
NLI needs a Missing Statue tag.

O Mac As you wish!
And you reminded me of this statue, so added Moving, rather than Missing Statue tag.

“AI Overview The famous wooden carving at Celbridge Abbey in County Kildare, historically localized as the "Brian Boru Statue", is a rustic, weather-worn sculpture. It stands within the tranquil, historic grounds along the River Liffey that were famously associated with Jonathan Swift.
Historically, this piece is an example of local folklore rather than an authentic depiction of the High King.
It is one of a few scattered, traditional representations of Brian Boru found around Ireland”
Still no news of his current whereabouts -

Has the statue succumbed to decay, being wooden, and no longer exists?
