Natwest in Mardol Head, Shrewsbury, has been closed since Thursday.

The bank says the branch is currently closed while workers are isolating and so that a deep clean can be carried out. A date for reopening has not yet been set.

A Natwest spokeswoman said: "The health and safety of our colleagues and customers is paramount, and due to staff isolating our Mardol Head branch in Shrewsbury is closed temporarily while we carry out a deep clean.

"We will re-open the branch as soon as possible and continue to make every effort to keep as many of our branches open as possible despite the challenges of Covid-related absences. In that time we continue to offer customers a range of alternative ways to bank including at the local post office, through our online and mobile app."
