East Lothian Council, which owns the centre, said it remains open while work is going on to tackle the problem.

However it is understood a number of groups who have booking at the centre, particularly those involving young children and babies, will be told to stay away.

A council spokesperson said: "Following the discovery of a mouse infestation at Bleachingfield Centre, Dunbar pest control measures have been put in place.

"The centre, including the library, remains open and all groups who have a booking are being advised directly."
