Description
Public conveniences in castellated style with cyclopean masonry built against the exposed rock face behind. A 2-storey 2-window central range has 1-storey, 4-window flanking wings, all under embattled parapets. The windows have shallow pointed heads and small-pane glazing. The central range has empty niches set slightly lower than the windows in each storey. The upper storey projects on a corbel table, and upper centre is a vented oculus with a hood mould integral with the parapet string course. The wings have doorways set back to the R and L ends under battlements and have cast iron gates (Gentlemen to the R, Ladies to the L). The doorway on the R is at a higher level due to the sloping ground. Further R are steps leading up over the doorway. Curved convex roofs over the wings are painted grey and have an embattled parapet continuous with the upper-storey parapet. Concrete steps with a stone parapet on the R lead to 2 pointed doorways with boarded doors above the wing to R, leading to the upper storey of the central range. Further concrete steps lead to a balcony on top of the structure, which has added railings and a rendered and painted surface.
