An office and data center campus owned by Lloyds Bank is up for sale in West Yorkshire.

First noted by the Halifax Courier, CBRE is offering the Wakefield Road property outside Halifax as up for sale. A listing price wasn’t included.

The 55-acre site totals 275,000 sq ft (25,548 sqm) across offices, data halls, warehousing, and a stand-alone energy center. The operational site is secured with perimeter fencing and security gatehouse. Around 10 acres are undeveloped but could potentially be expanded upon.

Details on the data center weren’t shared, but the sales brochure said the current site power capacity is 7,500KVA. A JG-D case study suggests the site saw two 600 sqm (6,460 sq ft) data halls built out around 2002.

The site, known as the Copley data center, is owned and operated by Lloyds Bank. In 2022 the company said it would be closing the site and relocating staff to its Halifax HQ. At the time the firm said the site would close sometime in 2025.

The bank has long been on a journey of migrating away from on-premises and into the cloud.

In 2017 Lloyds signed a 10-year cloud outsourcing deal with IBM worth £1.3 billion. The agreement saw around 1,500 Lloyds staff and contractors to be shipped over to Big Blue.

While never officially confirmed, it was reported that the bank would also be selling a number of its data centers to the technology company and paying IBM for their operation. Around the time of the deal, Lloyds was said to operate facilities in Copley, Pudsey, Peterborough, and Corby.

In 2020, Lloyds signed cloud deals with both Azure and Google Cloud, and claimed its tech stack “includes GCP, Azure, OpenShift, and Kubernetes.”

Over the summer Lloyds announced plans to convert an old data center and office site into social housing. The firm aims to redevelop a facility in Pudsey, West Yorkshire, into up to 80 new homes that could be available for social rent. Further conversions of the bank’s real estate portfolio are expected in the future.

Another JG-D case study suggests the Pudsey site saw two 600 sqm (6,460 sq ft) data halls built out also around 2002. The company previously said it was to close and sell the office back in 2020, relocating staff to its site in Lovell Park, Leeds.
