City of Derry. An Historical Gazetteer to the Buildings of Londonderry City of Derry. An Historical Gazetteer to the Buildings of Londonderry.
By Daniel Calley (2013)
City of Derry. An Historical Gazetteer to the Buildings of Londonderry is the latest in a long line of lists and gazetteers of the buildings in various parts of Ulster produced by the Ulster Architectural Society.
The gazetteer covers the entire centre of the city in detail, street by street and often building by building describing not only what is there now but also, tantalisingly, what has gone. It is a fascinating and often amusing tour of the social history and architecture of the city.
The author of the gazetteer, Daniel Calley, writes: The greatest inspiration for this volume is the city itself. Its many steep streets, usually with Foyle views, walls, mixture of styles and periods, and use of native materials, notably the beautiful combination of schist and Dungiven sandstone create a unique setting of international importance. This precious legacy is a fragile one. Every time a building is demolished, a plastic window inserted, a cast iron lamp–post cut from the ground, or a garden built upon, a tiny unigue thread is rent from the city’s fabric, lost forever.
