A corrugated metal hut on the outside of Bishop’s Gate has been covered over with fake stone and a fake doorway containing an image of Derry in the old days. The re-model is perhaps part of the “Peacewall Reimaging Project” (Derry Journal) on the railings just out of shot to the right, which was unveiled on December 18th, 2015 (Shared History).

Vincent “Vinnie” Ryan, brother of Alan Ryan, was shot in Finglas, Dublin, on February 29th. In the graffiti above he is given the title “óglach” but his family denied that he was in the (Real) IRA (BBC). In 2019, two people were convicted for their roles in Ryan’s killing (Irish Times).
