Lloyds Bank has announced that it is closing one of its branches in Cornwall.

The branch, in Foundry Square in Hayle, will close on May 12.

Lloyds has blamed the move on changes in the way people do their banking - shifting to online and mobile rather than local, face-to-face contact.

In a closure notice, Lloyds said: "Branches will remain vital in meeting customers’ needs but we must continually review our network to make sure we have branches in locations where customers need and use them the most.

"As a result, we’ve made the difficult decision to close this branch because customers are using it less often.

"You can continue to use any other Lloyds Bank branch and the nearest alternative is the Camborne branch. You can also use your local Post Office for many everyday banking transactions.

"We’ll still be here to support you, and there are other ways you can continue to do your banking – take a look at this document to find out about these in more detail, as well as a summary of our review."
