Harbour group in facilities protest

MEMBERS of an organisation in the country’s most south-westerly village padlocked public toilets yesterday in protest against claims of local authority inaction.

Baltimore Harbour Users’ Association (BHUA) members said they had lost patience with Cork County Council and had decided to take action to highlight their case.

BHUA members padlocked the door of both the ladies and gent’s public toilets, claiming they were dirty and unsafe and presented tourists with a very bad impression of the village.
