71 great pictures showcasing life in Derry & NW back in November 1984

We’ve been back in the archives to scan the Derry Journal film negatives from November 1984 to give you a snapshot of life in the city and region 40 years ago.

Back then the Rossville flats were still standing while all over Derry people were fundraising for the famine appeal in Ethiopia and children queued up to see Santa at Wellworths.
