Pictures of former Mayors and Cathaoirligh of Castebar had to be rescued from a skip.
Current Cathaoirleach of Castlebar Municipal District Cllr Ger Deere told the monthly meeting that photographs going back to the days of Castlebar Town Council had to be salvaged from a skip by a keen-eyed staff member. Castlebar councillors' former HQ at Marsh House boasted the framed photographs which were later discovered discarded in a skip.
Cllr Deere praised vigilant staff member Dwyane Jordan for rescuing the portraits but stated they should never have been cast aside in the first place.
