    1:21 - Just to clarify - this is NOT Saint Columba's Cathedral, it is called Saint Columb's Cathedral, and it is a Church of Ireland (Anglican) Cathedral, and the stone of Saint Columba's is not located at the cathedral, but 5 minutes walk away at Saint Columba's Roman Catholic Church also known as the Long Tower Church.

    St Columba's stone at the Long Tower. My Granny told me in the late 1950s that if you were ill then the Stone would cure you.

    Note the Walker Monument at 1:05, which was a major Derry landmark until it was blown up by republicans in the '70s.

    Nice video! Obviously dated as hell, but great to how it was perceived back then. The sectarian mudslinging in the comments below are absolutely pointless but unfortunately expected.

    And the London part is from James 1's plantation system
    (hmm Derry plants London takes)
    I like it short, simple and true: Derry
