Alas, these toilets could have been the best of all... Their location for starters, is absolutely fantastic... Very nice area and just off the beaten track enough to give some privacy, the footfall past these delightful toilets still remains heavy enough to attract plenty of strange...
As you can see above, they look delightfully attractive bathed in the morning sunshine, and just out of shot on the right, is a Bar with a large outdoor seating area. A lot of drinkers choose to make the trip across the road for relief, as oppose to going back inside and upstairs to the bars toilets... Lets look a little closer...
Not to bad at all eh? Modern, functional and in a good location. Whats not to like? Well, unfortunately rather a lot.
The problem is the 'other'
undesirable clientele...
Notice the 'Syringe Box' on the wall, and the large metal roll down shutter at the top? Yes, thats right. Its in such a nice location, that it has become the local druggies toilet of choice and as such is constantly under heavy police surveillance and closed after dark
This is a real shame, as it would be a great place for toilet enthusiasts to gather, especially with it being so close to the train station, but alas... No such luck. Shame that certain types have to out and out ruin it for us normal people...
Be sure to check back tomorrow though, for a site of historical importance - The oldest toilets in Teignmouth ! Till then, happy pooping
