Jo Crowley MADRID/LONDON (Reuters) -Santander's plan to buy TSB for 2.65 billion pounds ($3.61 billion) and boost its position in the UK came together just a few weeks ago, after the Spanish bank had been weighing a possible exit from Britain,

The TSB name could disappear from UK High Streets after the British bank's Spanish owner announced its sale to rival Santander. The £2.65bn deal still has to be agreed by the current owner Sabadell's shareholders but if it does go ahead,

People are fearing that more banks may close in Devon as banking giant Santander is on the brink of buying rival TSB. Towns in Devon where there is a TSB and Santander still remaining could now be most at risk of further branch closures.
