Lisburn and Castlereagh Council bonfire clean-up cost just £180

A Northern Ireland council has spent an average of just £22.50 per bonfire on their 11th night clean-ups.

The Lisburn and Castlereagh City Council (LCCC) expenditure was revealed this week, as the summer season of Orange Lodge and Royal Black Preceptory marches comes to a close at the weekend.

The cost of clean-ups in the district came to a total of £180 for eight bonfires, compared to thousands of pounds spent in other council areas such as Newry, Mourne and Down District where £6,000 was spent on the clean-up at three bonfire sites.
