A high street bank's repairs are nearing completion as it gets ready to reopen later this week. 

Barclays on Market Street in the town centre is undergoing refurbishment after it was badly damaged in an attack by pro-Palestinian protestors earlier this year. 

Last week, the banking giant announced the branch would close for business until Thursday, November 14, to be refreshed. 

Its website still says it is set to reopen on Thursday. 

Barclays advises customers who need its services to go to the Horwich Banking Hub on Mondays, or to go to their nearest branch on Central Street in Bury.

Protest groups have taken action against Barclays since the war in Gaza due to what they say is its involvement in an Israeli weapons firm, Elbit Systems. 

The bank says it provides financial services to companies in the defence sector which supply defence products to NATO and its allies, but does not directly invest in such companies.
