The swimming pool at Much Wenlock Leisure Centre was closed on August 18 for the repairs.

The pool was scheduled to have reopened yesterday.

But it will not now open until Tuesday.

A council spokesman said: "Unfortunately, the repairs are taking longer than at first anticipated."

Planned lessons will still take place over the weekend but the pool will remain closed for public swimming sessions until Tuesday.

A council spokesman said the problem had arisen over a seal between the vinyl flooring in the changing rooms and the drain.
