CO-OP bosses say a Norton convenience store has been closed for essential maintenance and will re-open this weekend.

Worried customers got in touch with us after seeing the store on the corner of Witton Street and Glebe Lane unexpectedly closed.

But a spokesperson for Central England Co-op said today: “Our Food Store in Glebe Lane, Norton, is currently closed for essential maintenance work and we hope to have the store back open to the public by the weekend.

"We apologise for the inconvenience this may cause in the short term.”
