Springtown Camp monument unveiled in Londonderry
Hundreds of people turned out to the unveiling of a monument to the Springtown Camp in Londonderry on Thursday.
The camp used to be a US naval base before locals squatted in the Nissen huts which had no water, electricity or heating.
Willie Deery, a former resident, said: "My lasting impression of Springtown Camp was of our mothers."
The celebration of mothers continued as daughters and granddaughters of the group Mothers of Springtown Camp re-enacted a photograph of them protesting at the Guildhall back in 1959.
