Barry's Amusements in Portrush is to reopen, two years after it was closed and put up for sale.

It's been reported the Curry family, who run Curry's Fun Park in Salthill, County Galway, have taken on a long-term lease.

MLA Cara Hunter is from Portrush and said people were looking forward to visiting the 100-year-old amusements over Easter.

She said the reopening was also welcome news for the local economy.

The popular landmark was opened by husband and wife Francesco Trufelli and Evelyn Chipperfield in 1926.
