Another bank branch to close in Gloucestershire
By Matt Hall | 31st May 2022
Barclays Bank plans to close another 27 of its branches in the UK by 2023, including one in the Cotswolds.
The bank has announced it will close its branch in the centre of Stow-on-the-Wold, as a result of a lack of footfall.
A Barclays spokesperson said: "We continue to review and adjust our branch footprint to ensure it reflects the way that our customers are increasingly choosing to do their banking.
"We will always give twelve weeks' notice of any branch closures, explaining the rationale for the decision, as well as highlighting alternative branches and ways to bank.
"This includes working with the local community to find different, more flexible ways for our colleagues to continue to provide local banking support, such as through pop-up presences."
The full list of closures is:
• Stow-on-the-Wold
• Rawtenstall
• Muswell Hill, London
• Bexhill-on-Sea
• Felixstowe
• Heswall
• Pinner
• Gateshead

These additional Barclays closures add to 63 announced earlier in the year.
