Lloyds branch closures surge: 95 more UK bank branches to shut — is your Halifax or Bank of Scotland branch on the list?
Lloyds Banking Group will close 95 branches across Britain between May 2026 and March 2027, including 53 Lloyds Bank, 31 Halifax, and 11 Bank of Scotland sites. The closures bring the total planned for 2026 and 2027 to at least 168. Lloyds cited increased digital banking demand. Some affected towns will receive new banking hubs to maintain cash access.
