Lloyds Banking Group is also closing branches of its other franchises, including Halifax, while the Bank of Scotland saw four closures earlier in the year.

Over a dozen Lloyds branches will close this month and next, followed by another 14 in 2027. Meanwhile, 14 Halifax locations will close by the end of the year, with another six closures planned for 2027.
