During  the
1970s IRA bombs destroyed many buildings - some of which were
centuries old - within the historic heart of Derry. There was
little inward investment, and in 1981 Paddy Doherty helped to
set up The Inner City Trust to transform the city.
The group restored and built properties from scratch such as
the Craft Village, The O’Doherty Fort, Jefferson Court, The Calgach
Centre, The Tower Hotel and 3-5 London Street.
