Because it was impossible for us, financially, to knock down the existing toilet block we set about reconstructing from the inside, thus there has been an organic growth rather than a fundamental change.We have introduced a clothes washing area with 2 washing machines. We don't have a drier but have a warm room where the boiler is. Here is a picture taken by a long term camper to record the old swing doors in the gents.Some of you may remember them!

There were piles of perilous, and often unidentifiable, rubbish everywhere, including broken glass, heaps of rusting metal growing grotesquely from ivy-strangled areas and, curiously, piles and piles of plastic in every form, from sheets buried below the surface to heaps of old cracked toys. Every time we spotted a piece of plastic and pulled, it writhed out of the ground in seemingly unending sheets which in turn unearthed yet another layer in the subsoil. 

Now the ground is grazed on in the winter by a neighbours sheep and this gives it the first cut of the season.
