n/a	"Pinkman: Scrín = a shrine. “Skreeny in Leitrim, a mere lengthening of scrín, a shrine.” (Joyce, place-names, Vol. III)… Scrín, was an ornamental casket, or box, made to contain the relics of a saint. At one time these shrines were very common in Ireland. They were made of the best, were held in the greatest reverence and kept with great care. The churches or places where these shrines were preserved, were known by the Irish word, scrín. Compare Skreen, in Mayo, from Scrín-Adhamhnáin, Skreen in Meath, from Scrín-Cholumcille.
