These were the toilets that used to be on the corner of Imeary Street and Chichester Road in the 1970s; they were nick-named Westoe Netty. I took this photo at Beamish where they had rebuilt the toilets for show but now they have demolished them. I can still remember using them after coming from Derby Street baths when I was about 14.
