THE date has been set for when Barrow's Boots pharmacy will move to a new super surgery.

A Boots pharmacy is due to make up part of the new Alfred Barrow Health Centre on Duke Street.

And the Dalton Road pharmacy is due to move to the new £12m complex on October 11.

The shop will close on October 10.
