Passionate locals have launched a petition to keep the park open as a going concern

By Q Radio News

Thousands of people have signed up for a campaign to save Barry's amusements in Portrush. 

The iconic North Coast attraction was last week placed on the market for £2,75m.

 

Currently closed, the owners have said they could sell to developers who may bulldoze the park to make way for housing or hotels.

Belfast mother-of-two Judith Park is behind the Save Barry's petition, which already has more than 6,000 signatures.

So many happy memories for the Park family at Barry's...

Here are Judith, Mark, Rachel and Charlotte having a ball on the North Coast:
