Letterkenny s Market Square is to be named in honour of the late Barney Doherty, founding member and former Director of Highland Radio.
The motion was put forward at yesterday s meeting of the Letterkenny Milford Municipal District by Cathaoirleach Councillor Donal Coyle, that the naming be unveiled upon completion of the regeneration of the Market Square.
