Anger in Ballaghaderreen over scrapping of swimming pool plans

There's outrage in Ballaghaderreen after the planned reopening of its swimming pool was scrapped.

The leisure centre in the Abbeyfield Hotel refugee centre was on the brink of reopening, after being closed in recent years.

But Ballaghaderreen Leisure Centre yesterday pulled out of negotiations with the owners, after failing to reach a deal.

Local Councillor Micheál Frain says it's a huge blow to the town.
