Description
Republican mural, Bogside, Derry, 1989. Free Derry was the name given to the area of Derry City which declared itself beyond the pale of British rule following the Battle of the Bogside of August 12-August 14, 1969. The famous slogan "You are now entering Free Derry" was painted on the corner of Columbs Street by a local activist, John Casey. The gable end marking this area has been preserved and now serves as an historical monument; the Irish Tricolour flies over the wall.
Republican; Nationalist
