I do not know the reason it left Malahide Castle, as it was an attraction there. The locals definitely seek its retention and according to Monday's edition of the Irish Independent, Fáilte Ireland will make a decision in the coming weeks as to the best location for the exhibit. However, there is a strong view that its best location is where it was. It should not have been moved and it is part of the development of tourism through the Fingal area instead of concentrating everything in the city centre. The Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport should clarify the position quickly and should indicate a preference that it should remain located in Malahide.
