Britannia Building Society

Britannia was founded in 1856 and was known as the Leek and Moorlands Building Society.

Since then a series of mergers has evolved it into the modern day Britannia.

It has 191 branches and over 2 million members making it the second largest building society in the UK with nearly £5 billion of gross lending per annum and £20 billion of group assets.

Although Britannia is keen to utilise new technology it is also still committed to maintaining an extensive branch network. It is a mutual society run for the benefit of its members.

Britannia offers the following types of mortgages:

  • Fixed Rate
  • Flexible
  • Offset
  • Standard Variable Rate
  • Tracker
