…de la Ballymoney Times:

A well-known solicitor in Ballycastle says The Diamond in the centre of the town, should have Irish and Ulster-Scots added to the English nameplate to reflect the 'cultural diversity' of the whole Moyle District.

Berkeley White, whose office is based at The Diamond, wrote to Moyle Council saying that as The Diamond is the central 'square' in the town it is appropriate that all major cultures are represented.

And he wants to see Quay Road, where he lives, also have a triple language representation because it is one of the main roads in the town.

In a letter to the Council, Mr White said: 'As a business rate payer of 7 The Diamond, Ballycastle, I would propose that Moyle District Council add street names in both the Irish and Ulster Scots (Scots Irish) languages.
