New arts project to bring sounds of the weather to historic walls of Derry

Join the Friends of The Derry Walls and Ulster University, Magee for a fascinating talk on the city's historic monument.

Manus Deery (pictured below), Director of the Historic Environment Division of DfC, will be the featured speaker for the organisations' December 2025 lecture.

The talk will take a look at the fabric of the monument that we see today. When was it actually built? What changes can be seen and what can’t? What do we know about all of this from the archives? 

Manus Deery is an architect and Director of the Historic Environment Division of DfC - the state body who have looked after the fabric of the monument since 1955.

He has been involved in the management of the monument since 2008.

The Lecture will take place on Wednesday, December 3 at 7:30pm. Venue for this lecture is The Minor Hall, Magee, Ulster University. 

This event is kindly supported by Ulster University and the Department for the Economy. To Book Tickets, check out www.derrywalls.com
