The move, which could hit around 400 workers across the branches, is the latest in a flurry of closure announcements by the UK’s biggest banks.

Two of the branches to close are in Northern Ireland.

The banking giant made the announcement as part of its “transformation programme”, which saw it axe 82 sites last year.
