Council-run cemeteries will stay open for longer from next week.

Graveyards managed by Derry City and Strabane District Council will stay open until 7pm from next Monday, March 29.

The clocks go forward this weekend, meaning there will be an extra hour of sunlight each day.

A council spokesperson said they were bringing forward the later summer opening times at local cemeteries.
