There's concerns about a proposal to send the Lord Mayor of Dublin's coach to London.

The coach - which is 226 years old and valued at around 3 million euro - is only used twice a year. It brings the Lord Mayor of Dblin to the Dublin Horse Show, and is used in the St Patrick's Day Parade.

Dublin City Council are considering a proposal to send the coach to London to take part in a parade.

Tourism Ireland have suggested that the coach be included in a parade in London. A report will be brought to the next Council meeting on the first of October, where a final decision will be made.

The coach was built in 1789, and is kept in a temperature controlled room in Ringsend.
