Lloyds Bank have announced that they're closing their last branch in St Mary's located on one of the Isles of Scilly, a group of islands near Cornwall.

Lloyds Bank are the last bank to close in the island chain following the closure of a Barclays branch 4 years ago in the same chain of islands.

Public polls stated that more and more islanders are using ATMs and the Post Office to withdraw money than the actual bank.

The now former location of Lloyds is to turn into a Post Office.

Residents of the Islands that may need to do in-person banking will now have to catch a flight or take the ferry to Cornwall, as the Lloyds Bank in Penzance has taken hold of the now closed location's responsibilities.
