Was he up the church tower (which seems to have disappeared)? catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000322348 (reverse view) Edit - there are workman's ladders up to the weathervane, which maybe is how Mr French gained access.

The church was demolished in the 1950s. Interesting story here - www.patrickcomerford.com/2017/02/finding-former-parish-ch... " ... Killehenny Church was built as the parish church in Ballybunion on a site donated by HB Harene, close to the cliffs, and was consecrated in 1858. In 1883, the parish was united with Rattoo, and the first rector of the new union was the Revd Cecil Richard Hoggins, a former naval chaplain. Hoggins was succeeded by the Revd Charles Edward Fry. Later, it was recalled, ‘the rector suffered terribly from shyness. His manner was painfully nervous.’ In 1922, the parish was joined with Listowel. By then, Killehenny Church and its clocktower had become familiar landmarks in Ballybunion. But for almost a century, the church was battered by the weather and the elements. A local historian, Russell McMorran of Tralee, mused that it must have been an exciting experience going to church there on a stormy, winter’s day. After almost 100 years, the decision was taken in 1957 to close the church and to demolish it. ..."
