Fosse Wharf Elsan Point

[p6rob]

Not sure if this is the right sub-forum but.

 

The Elsan Point at Fosse Wharf has been demolished. It was there, in all it's grotty glory, the other week. Ended up driving to Hatton with the poo cassette on Saturday.

 

Haven't been able to find any mention of it on the C&RT website, so don't know if the Fosse Wharf Elsan is being rebuilt.

It was certainly grotty, so good from that point of view, but there is a lack of facilities in that area, so I hope it is going to be replaced.

Same for Cropredy

Dropped some rubbish off at Cropredy on Tuesday. To say the waste compound was full is an understatement. Perhaps they have asked Biffa not to 'do' the bins until after the rebuild. A little too early.

It looks as if its being demolished again, unless someone dropped a lite fag end down there

What’s happened, it was fine a couple of weeks ago.

I didn't see it but Diana said the stainless bowl is out in the open with some low brick walls

In an idea world, all Elsan points would be of the outside variety. So much more pleasant than a smelly shed.

So that's why the one at Alvecote is like that. I thought that Mr. Burge was still saving up to have a roof built over it.

I thought he was going to last year when the bricks arrived and the concrete went down but they just built a low wall for some reason beside it. There is a grand one like that somewhere on the River Avon
