Yep it's now LLoyds TSB. I had a TSB account almost from when I was born, still remember the blue pass book.

If my memory serves me correctly, in the 1950's early 60's, there was/is a bank on the corner of LittleBlackburn Rd and Peel St next to the Bus Stop for Fern Gore which was Lloyds it had a horse as a symbol. I cannot comment on what Bank it changed to due to my emigration to Australia in April 1964.
