There is a green hill far away Without the city wall....
Cecil Alexander , the wife of the Bishop of Derry, composed many of her famous hymns not far from Grianin Ailigh - the old fort that was the royal seat and stronghold of the ancient kings of Ulster. The fort stands on a hill outside the historic city of Derry. Choirs and artists from the district come together in the environs of the ancient fort, to sing the music and words of Easter.
