Lady of Rathcoole statue missing for almost 20 years tracked down and returned to estate

A statue created for the people of Rathcoole has been returned to the estate after 20 years.

The Lady of Rathcoole statue was brought to the estate in 1964, after being created by the sculptor Stephen Toogood. It remained on site until 2003, when redevelopment work at The Diamond saw the statue being taken down and put into storage.

Over the years, many people had been asking where the statue went to and local youth development group NACN tracked the statue down, finding her in a warehouse in Antrim.
