Teampull Pheadair (‘Peter’), Shader.
On the shore at the northern extremity of Mol Eire, some ¾ mile north-west of Upper Shader, and about 15 yards from the edge of the rock Craig Gille Phadruig, on which it is built, are the grass-covered foundations of Teampull Pheadair, orientated east-south-east and west-north-west , and measuring about 33 ½ feet in length outside. It seems to have consisted of a nave and chancel, as 22 feet from the western end, where the northern wall has been laid bare by agricultural operations, there is a return of 2 feet 2 inches in the wall. The nave being about 16 feet 8 inches wide outside, the chancel would be about 12 feet 4 inches wide externally and about 11 ½ feet in length. Where laid bare the northern wall remains from 1 foot 3 inches to 2 feet 3 inches in height.
