Old Station toilet signs now preserved at LT Depot, Acton

Bow

	Clerkenwell Green The proposed development of these disused public underground toilets on this historic green have been the subject of much outrage among residents and local traders. The Council have scrapped plans due to public pressure despite planning interest from 19 companies. This area attracts a better class of wino.......
The Green has been visited by generations of political dissenters from the Wat Tyler to Lenin. In 1842, the Prime Minister Robert Peel banned public meetings from taking place here. In 1890, the world's 1st ever May Day march left from here.The Green was described by poet Sir John Betjeman as "a remarkable haven of peace amid the roar of public transport and heavy lorries".

I was pretty certain I was going to find various bit’s of my anatomy cut off before their prime! Happy to say everything was intact! – Well at least as intact as before :=))"

Nothing is sacred in the ever changing face (& high property prices) of London

According to the British Toilet Association -- yes, a pro-toilet lobby group

-- a third of the lavatories run by city councils have closed in the last three years.

There is now only one public toilet for every 10,000 people in England, they say.

Some call it a fine example of urban regeneration.

But others fear Britain's public toilets are an endangered species.

London's first public lavatories were built over rivers; their output was enough to choke off the flow

of the Fleet River, a tributary of the Thames.

It was the Victorian engineer George Jennings who pioneered London's distinctive public conveniences

-- tiled underground chambers marked by iron railings or arches at street level.

Their introduction did not go unopposed, however. Playwright George Bernard Shaw, who was also a

local politician, sparked outrage among burghers in his north London ward when he campaigned for a

lavatory for the female workers of Camden Town.

"Many public loos occupy prime sites; thanks to the property boom,

local councils have found themselves sitting on a valuable asset." THE ECONOMIST 2002
