    The Apprentice Boys Memorial Hall. Still there, I can't get quite this angle in Streetview.

    Flickr is sometimes amazing! In 2015 via Tony Tomlin I am sure we have discussed this building and its extensions before, but cannot find where ...

    In L_CAB_03655 we are looking up the street, and can see the First Presbyterian church before it got its 1903 Tetrastyle Roman Corinthian Portico. Would the portico be visible here if present? Hard to say. But check the lamps on the pillars outside that church - in todays they are clearly square gas lanterns, in 03655 they are globes. foyle civic trust has a different reverse view with the portico and square gas lamps, quoting 1910. And L_ROY_02886 is another reverse view, no portico, squared lamps. So maybe the round lamp one is the earliest?

    Current Streetview. OSI 6". According to wikipedia, it was " housing the US Army during World War II, and later being used as a dance hall during the 1950s and 1960s".
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    The current castle dates from 1839 according to the DIA but the interior of it was not finished as the owner Robert Ogilby died. "His successors took no interest in the castle and the partially-complete castle was neglected before it had even been finished." It was almost demolished by Limavady Council but on public outcry was instead renovated.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    The ruins of the castle of Dungiven stand at the top of the street and are not very striking in themselves although standing on a slope they command some fine views in the valley This place was built in the time of James I with a fosse and mounds in front and flanked by two round towers The interior courts appear to have been well fortified but the work of ruin is so complete as to leave little but guesses to the non antiquarian. A description of the earlier castle owned by Edward Cary from Ireland Picturesque and Romantic, Volume 2 (1838) By Leitch Ritchie.

    Sharon Corbet Sharon, it looks like everyone but the two of us are off for the Easter weekend. I don't have much to add other than a vague memory about Dungiven Castle being associated with the song "Danny Boy"

    At the Plantation of Ulster, this part of County Derry in which Dungiven Castle was situated was granted to the Skinners' Company, and their grant from the Honourable the Irish Society was dated 1617. lordbelmontinnorthernireland.blogspot.ie/2013/09/dungiven... In the reign of Henry II (1154-89) workers skilled in dressing skins were described as 'pelliparii', 'peleters', or skinners hence name of estate....."Manor of Pellipar and the Castle, town, and land of Dungiven" www.theskinnerscompany.org.uk/historical-timeline/
