Londonderry - Diamond (Junction)

The four principal streets of Derry Old Town run from Butcher's Gate, Ferryquay Gate, Shipquay Gate and Bishop's Gate and meet in the Diamond, which is the name used for their junction (still following the medieval town plan) since the 17th C. The Town Hall originally stood here, but it was destroyed during one of the many sieges of the town and rebuilt elsewhere. The center of the square is now occupied by the War Memorial.
