As in the following, is there a way to see the image? If one goes to an affiliate family search center might one be able to see an image there. Many thanks,
Andrea

That's an Irish civil birth registration. For some unknown reason, the FamilySearch index adds "christening," but it is a birth, not a baptism/christening.
Irish civil birth registrations are available free, 1864 to 1922, on the Irish government website, irishgenealogy.ie.
Here is a link to the image of the register page. Catherine Teresa McCabe is the last listing on the page. https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1873/03181/2166759.pdf If you have not used the site before, you may have to solve a Captcha and sign in, but no password is needed and the website does not even save your details. I sign in with a first name of the letter a and a surname of letter a.

As a more generic answer: you can check what the Catalog says about access by searching it for the image group or film number. Note, however, that the catalog has been locked since about mid-2021, so it may be out of date.
For the Irish civil registrations, the catalog has film reels (="not available to you online from FamilySearch"), but there is a "click here" link that goes to the irishgenealogy.ie site that Áine mentioned.

Certain years of the Irish civil registration films were formerly available at an FSC, but the contract between FamilySearch and the Irish government changed about 4 years ago if I recall correctly. It's a shame because the image quality on FS was better, and the deaths between 1864 (when Irish civil registration began) and 1870 were available on FS. Those are not, yet, available on irishgenealogy.ie.
