FIRE crews continue to deal with a fire at a Wrexham factory four days on.
The blaze started at the Kronospan factory in Chirk in the early hours of Monday.
A spokesman for the North Wales Fire and Rescue Service said yesterday that the fire will continue to 'rage for some time'.
On Thursday morning, the spokesman confirmed that fire crews were still at the scene and still 'dealing' with the incident.
Nearby Ysgol Y Waun previously said that pupils were kept indoors on Wednesday and Thursday 'as a precaution'.
The fire service spokesman said: "Crews are still on site at the Kronospan fire in Chirk damping down hotspots.
"There is very little smoke leaving the site at present and any smoke is heading North / West.
"If residents do have any concerns about the smoke, info from Public Health Wales is available."
