The two areas shown in this short gallery are, The Bogside and The Fountain, both of which are located in Derry. The two areas are no more than a ten minute walk from each other. As can be clearly seen by the photos the two areas scream two completely different views. In fact, the two areas are still separated by a peace wall which is closed at half nine every night in an attempt to avoid conflict. However, at times conflict still arises. Both of these areas are at the heart of the city and are steeped in history, history that should not be forgotten, history that should be celebrated and history that should be respected. However, history should remain that. The people of these two areas should move on from their past and become not two areas, but one community in an effort to strive forward for a better, brighter future, together.
