Best Answer

The ruins of the medieval town of Derry ('Doire' in Gaelic, 'Daire' in Irish)) were raised from the dust of history by master-builders who had been sent from London by James I under a charter given to the Irish Society in 1613.

Due to the nature of Derry's long, tumultuous past, I've added a related link with more information below.
