Walking Tour of Coleraine
At the beginning of the 17th century the Plantation of Londonderry created a new county and established two new towns, the city of Londonderry and the town of Coleraine. Our walking tour will be led by fellow member and long-term resident Daniel Calley. We will begin at the John Lanyon designed train station and along the way will take in the parish church of St Patrick’s, where we will have morning coffee, Thomas Turner’s 1859 town hall, the 1830s markets, Isaac Farrell’s 1852 Methodist Church, Stewart Gordon’s 1844 town bridge and a number of other churches and buildings.
