Council asked to light up Kildare tourist attraction for security

A politician has called for lights to be erected at the Wonderful Barn structure in Leixlip to improve security.

It's a popular tourist attraction as well as being a synonymous symbol of north Kildare.

Councillor Joe Neville asked the Council to "put lighting at the Wonderful Barn as it would help with security and increase its visibility at night."

He added: "And in an effort to improve visibility to the Wonderful Barn from Castletown House, could the Office of Public Works be asked to prune the trees at the avenue near the back car-park entrance at the N4."

Cllr Neville will raise the issue with Council officials next week.
