New Banking Hub To Open In Shoreham

Proposed Shoreham-by-Sea Banking Hub Signs

Plans for new banking hub signage in Shoreham have been submitted for approval.

The plans are for illuminated and non-illuminated ‘banking hub’ and ‘post office’ signs at 63-65 High Street in Shoreham, with a directory of the banks serviced there and some repairs to heritage signage. 

The premises, on the south side of Shoreham High Street, was previously home a kitchen showroom and, before that, an off-licence.

The new hub was announced in July along with 67 others across the UK, in an attempt to counter the loss of in-person banking services and access to cash, as services and customers move online causing thousands of bank branch closures.

Shoreham’s hub will combine multiple bank branches into one run by the post office, which according to the plans, will have face-to-face services from Lloyds, Natwest, Royal Bank of Scotland, TSB and Santander representatives – on specific days during the week.

Meeting rooms to talk with bankers and over-the-counter services normally run by a bank branch will be run there.
