Last Days: Guildford's Public Toilets
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 сен 2024
- In early 2022 Guildford Borough Council proposed the closure of three separate public toilet sites in the town for good.
After public consultation it was decided that the three sites to close were:
- Allen House
- Bedford Road
- Farnham Road
On their last day of operation (3rd April 2022) my son and I took a visit to each site to film their condition before the doors were locked for the final time.

Thanks for posting this.
No problem and thanks for taking the time to comment.
Closing public toilets just causes anti social behavoival and people will start to deficate in the park they should stop paying their bone idle councilors such high salaries and cut the number of them to pay for public services that the taxpayer pays.
I filmed this simply so that in years to come people will be able to "see" what is behind the closed doors they see in the town. How those doors ended up being closed is not something I want to be drawn in to.
That's right. Make the people suffer so the council bosses can keep their salaries and pretend they're doing it for the public good. No other sphere of life would sustain public sector thinking.
There's a good number of reasons why the council has to cut back on services. Reduction in central government funding being one, an inherently inefficient organisation structure being the another but I don't believe salaries are the reason. Councils are not places where you'd typically seek out high paying jobs afterall.
The toilets at 3:02 looks so weird
Indeed the do and no doubt very cold!
Is This in The United States or where is This place at????
It's in Guildford in the UK, it's a town about 25-30 miles south-west of London
Thanks for the question 👍
I’ve seen worse!
I was pleasantly surprised myself!
