The multiple is “in the process of closing” its Eastern Avenue branch in Barnstaple, North Devon, it told C+D yesterday (November 27).

It marks the seventh branch that Lloydspharmacy has confirmed to C+D it will close, alongside the locations of seven more it is still hoping to sell.

The total of 14 pharmacies are all part of the 190 “commercially unviable” Lloydspharmacy branches in England where parent company Celesio UK will cease trading. The multiple would not confirm the location of the remaining 176 branches.

The manager of the Eastern Avenue pharmacy was unable to comment to C+D.

Where are the branches located?

You can use C+D's map to view the location of each of the 14 pharmacies identified so far. Branches confirmed for closure are marked in purple, while those Lloydspharmacy is still hoping to sell are marked in blue.

This map is live, and will be updated as C+D confirms the locations of further affected Lloydspharmacy branches.
