Lloyds Banking Group will close 10 branches in November, continuing a wider reduction in its high street network as more customers switch to digital banking. The closures affect Lloyds branches in England and will take place between November 3 and November 19.

Lloyds Is Closing Hundreds Of Locations
The November closures form part of Lloyds Banking Group’s wider plan to close more than 240 locations across Lloyds, Halifax and Bank of Scotland during 2026 and 2027.
The group says customer behaviour has changed as more people use online and mobile banking instead of visiting branches. A further 23 Lloyds branches are closing or have closed during October, alongside three Halifax locations.
Alternative Banking Services Could Follow
Lloyds said it considers how customers will continue to use banking services when a branch closes. In some areas, a Community Banker may visit after the branch shuts.
A Banking Hub or deposit service could also be established following an independent review. Lloyds said it follows Financial Conduct Authority guidance when announcing branch closures.
Some Banks Are Expanding Their Branch Networks
The Lloyds closures come as other major banks take a different approach to their physical networks. Barclays is extending opening hours and opening new branches, including locations in Poole, Bishop’s Stortford and Beverley.
Nationwide has also said it plans to open more sites in areas where customers need greater access to face-to-face banking.
The contrasting approaches show how Britain’s banking network is changing as customers increasingly use digital services while demand for in-person banking remains in some communities.
