St Augustine's Church, Derry City Walls

It is likely that St Augustine’s Church was built upon the site of a ruined mediæval church known as the Dubh Regles (Black Church). The present church was consecrated on 11th June 1872.

City walls - Derry / Londonderry

Originally there were only four entrances (or Gates) into the walled city i.e. Bishop's Gate, Shipquay Gate, Ferryquay Gate and Butcher's Gate - arranged in a cross pattern with the Diamond as its centre. Later were added New Gate (1789), Castle Gate (1803) and Magazine Gate (1865). The original Gates were themselves re-built in the 18th and 19th centuries.
