Lloyds Bank branch to close Lloyds Bank is to close its Kemp Town branch in St George’s Road on 4th November 2019, following a review. The bank says that customers’ needs are changing and counters at the branch are 10% quieter than a year ago. The bank says: “The majority of customers are also using alternative ways to bank and we have another branch close by.” The nearest alternative Lloyds branches are in North Street and at Preston Circus. You can also use the Post Office for many everyday banking transactions.
