Mark Hatcliffe, community banking director for Barclays Bristol, said: “We have identified that only 92 customers solely use the counter to undertake their banking, which is why we have taken the difficult decision to close the branch, along with the other statistics mentioned.
“We hope that the availability of our nearest Barclays branch at 32 Market Place, Warminster, access to services at the local Post Office in Westbury, along with our range of digital channels will help to ease the transition for our customers.”
Obviously nobody has told Barclays that we do NOT have a Post Office anymore unless we want to travel outside of the town (excluding the HAM which has very limited parking).
