Plans to restore Coleraine's derelict Market Yard have been unveiled.
Causeway Coast and Glens Council has applied for planning permission to transform the historic site.
Council wants the former livestock market to become a cultural, performance and exhibition centre.
Market stalls and a car park would complete the mix.

Councillor William McCandless supports the long-awaited Market Yard re-development plans:
