It is not the only bank to tell customers to expect more closures, with Lloyds, HSBC and Halifax among those to vanish from many high streets

In a statement, Barclays said: Our customers’ behaviour has changed significantly in recent years, with the majority choosing online banking.

"As we adapt, we are closing less well used branches whilst investing in brilliant customer service and digital technology."

The high street bank has also opened 200 Barclays Locals, pop-up sites located in places such as town halls or libraries.

HSBC will close 114 branches next year and NatWest will bring down the shutters on 43 branches.

Lloyds Bank will shut 14 outlets.

Halifax and Santander will both close five of their branches and Nationwide will close a single branch.

Typically if there are no banks in a town, you should be able to do some basic banking at your local Post Office. 

Many banks also offer a mobile banking service.

This is where your bank brings a bus to your local area that has the services that are usually available at your branch.

You should call up your bank to see if it runs a banking bus and they will be able to tell you where and when it will be parked.

Other banks use buildings such as village halls or libraries to offer mobile banking services.

Here, The Sun has put together a full list of bank branches closing in 2023 – including Barclays, HSBC, Lloyds and NatWest.
