The branches of Lloyds TSB and Halifax banks in Kendal are to close in February 2025.

The Lloyds Bank on Finkle Street and Halifax on Highgate will close on February 10 next year.

A spokesperson from Lloyds Banking Group said: "As many customers now choose to bank through their mobile app or online, visits to our Lloyds Bank and Halifax Kendal branches have fallen over recent years.

"The local Post Office offers everyday banking, with cash also available at close by free-to-use ATMs. Customers can also manage their money online, through our mobile banking app, by calling us or speaking with a community banker.”

Lloyds Banking Group say more than 77 per cent of its personal customers from each branch already use other ways of banking such as mobile, internet or phone banking, as well as other branches. 

The nearest Post Office is at 75 Stricklandgate, which offers personal and business customers everyday banking services, access to cash, paying in of cheques and more. 

The group says that after the branch closes a community banker will visit the area to offer face-to-face support for as long as the community needs it.
