Hide AdA spokesman said: “The high winds caused significant damage to the roof and ripped out much of the insulation.
"The building remains closed today until a full report on the extent of the damage can be obtained. The area around the building has been closed off to the public, both on foot and in vehicles, until the report can be obtained."
It’s not yet clear how long the Lifestyles Centre will remain closed.
The storms also uprooted a 300-year-old beech tree onto the driveway in Castlebank Park. It has since been removed by the council.
