Council considers permanent exhibition for Yer Maun

A local authority in Northern Ireland says it's considering a permanent exhibition devoted to one of the TT's greatest-ever riders.

Causeway Coast and Glens Council says it'll look at the idea of hosting a Joey Dunlop memorabilia collection after the success of an exhibition earlier this year.

The 25th anniversary of the death of the 26-time TT winner was marked in his home town of Ballymoney, and the response means the council now wants a permanent exhibition.

A leisure and development committee meeting saw members approve a motion to work with the Dunlop family to set up a permanent display.
