Nestled amongst trees and other shrubbery, it can be found down a set of stairs off the main road, where lots of parking is available.

Inside the separate ladies and gents facilities, the toilets, urinals and sink/dryers are still plumbed in and there is a baby changing facility intact.

Although it’s been left disused for quite some time, it’s surprisingly in good condition, with only a little TLC – and a clean – needed.

While the site is currently overgrown, with the outside of the building looking like the inside of one of the toilets, there’s scope to turn it into something completely brand new.

The site has uninterrupted views of the scenic River Mal and the surrounding green hills.
