Police were called at around 4pm today to a report of a fight involving approximately 40-50 juveniles– some of whom did not live locally.
The order was put in place at 5pm to prevent further acts of disorder and runs until 11.59pm on Saturday.
A police spokesperson said there will be patrols in the area throughout the night to ensure that no further acts of disorder occur, and enquiries are ongoing into offences which were committed.
