Location Derry / Londonderry (Co. Derry / Londonderry, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom), "Shipquay Place"
Comment view on the "Shipquay Gate", behind it you can see the "Shipquay Street" - on June 20th, 2015 we started here a tour on the city walls - excerpt from "THE HISTORICALMARKER DATABASE": this was one of the four original 17th century gates to the city. It had a watch tower, battlements and a portcullis. The carvings on the outside of the present gate, built between 1803-5, celebrate the city's wealth.
