  I haven't seen any evidence of the gate near the church being connected to anything, having been connected to anything, having been connected from anything else, or even being designed to be passable in any iteration. There's no warp there to anything, I'm not aware of a warp leading there from anything else, in fact there's not even a placeholder object or darkened plane that marks an entrance/exit.
  
  From what I can see, it's a flavor thing. It's where we were supposed to think that we came from (based on the shape) but it's not an actual warp or destination zone.
  
  I'll have to check out the old Tir rebirth area to see if I can find anything on the exit from there some time though. Not sure if that old one sent you to the center of Tir with a cutscene (like the G1 final) or sent you somewhere else first.

  
  
  The rebirth area is an isolated map. There's no indication you're in the actual Tir map or anywhere on it when you're at the rebirth area.

  Well I mean the exit warp itself, the prop info in the old map. I don't know if that lead right to tir or another map first for a cutscene.

  So with Xcelled's help (don't underestimate how good I am at breaking stuff) I decided to go around a couple of maps and some data and check out potential warps/links.
  
  
  

  • 22, "_TestRegion" (GM Island) has two warps defined. One goes to Rua's house, and the other goes to the center NPC section. Nothing warps to GM island naturally.
    
    
    
    
  • 31, "Ula_Bangor" (normal Bangor), some of you may have seen me find that hidden door in the bottom-left corner. Well bangor has 3 exit warps defined. The first is "Ula_Dun_to_Bangor", which is Gaiarech hills. The second warp is "Ula_DgnHall_Bangor_before1", Barri's entrance. The third warp is "Ula_Morva_Aisle", Morva Aisle. So it looks like whatever that door is, it's been dummied out more or less (and grabbing the ID from the region info shows nothing using it as a warp).
    
    
    
    
  • Tir Na Nog actually has versions of the NPC houses in Tir, with the camera unlocked and missing messages.

  • 77, "Ula_Emainmacha_Fightzone" has a minimap which mimics how featureless this map is (and is also turned around with the small island at the top-right).

    The minimap is "minimap_battle_event.jpg" so maybe it was for an event that nobody remembers, but this is also a segregated zone that would have to be specifically warped to/from with an NPC or script.
    
    
    
    
  • 126, "BlockRegion" has no warps to or from it, lending more to the idea that it was acceissble only with server-side scripts like an in-game jail.
    
    
    
    
  • 118, "Uladh_main_Tutorial", the old Tir tutorial area. A separate map, not connected to anything else (no warps to/from it exist anymore), there's no exit warp prop, and while it was designed to look like the church gate entrance, it actually uses different tree props. So entrance/exit was controlled by scripts/NPCs, not an actual connection to Tir.
    
    
    
    
  • 133, "Loginstage_012", the Falias login screen. There's a glowing gate in the middle (where the minigame objective would be) and it's an actual prop and it has a door icon... but it's not a valid warp, there's no region link info for it.
    
    
    
    
  • 141, "Loginstage_017", that unused login stage of Tir actually has a "scene_prop_10thAnniversary_miniature_ferghus_landmark" prop in it, so it looks like they did intend to change back to 3D login screens for the 10th anniversary and G19 and stuff.
    
    
    
    
  • 1004, "Beginner_Tutorial", the old rebirth area, however...

    This is using the same tree props as the gate behind the church, so the design is visually closer. In addition, it has four warps in it. Two are the in/out for the assumed garg training area, but the other two lead to region 1 (Tir), and they both warp to the same coordinates. And those coordinates are...

    The town square. So nope, this doesn't link behind the church either.

  Uhm, well, the gate near the church leads into a forest, right...?

  
  No but I do know where it actually is meant to lead to, and it's coming out soon, in July!
