Dr Éamon Phoenix is in County Londonderry. From Downhill and Mussenden, he travels to Limavady and Ballykelly exploring the impact of the 17th century Plantation of Ulster. Inside the historic city walls, Éamon visits the relics in St Columb’s Cathedral and considers how the city has changed over the centuries - before going to Prehen to hear the legend of Half-Hanged McNaghten.
