IN PICTURES: Free Derry Corner rally in solidarity with Garvaghy Road residents

A large crowd mobilised in solidarity with the Garvaghy Road residents at Free Derry Corner on Friday after the Parades Commission approved an Orange Order march through the nationalist area.

The rally was called after an application by the Portadown District Loyal Orange Lodge No 1 to parade from Drumcree Church along the nationalist Garvaghy Road to Carleton Street Orange Hall in the centre of Portadown on Sunday was approved on Friday.
