A Word in Yer Lug: Walls of Derry/Londonderry and the Siege Museum

We’re back in the days of the Siege in the Maiden City and exploring words like ‘weeflas’ and ‘weechils’ to describe how young the Apprentice Boys were when they closed the gates against invading Jacobite forces. In the Siege Museum we learn how the city starved and people had to eat their ‘doags’ to stay alive.
