Two new public toilets opened by council

Two public toilets that shut in part of Derbyshire in 2018 have been replaced with new ones.

Derbyshire Dales District Council said it had opened accessible unisex toilet facilities in Ashbourne and Matlock.

At Ashbourne Park, the new toilet opened to the public this week with support from Ashbourne Town Council.

At Artists' Corner on Dale Road in Matlock Dale, the council said a new toilet opened in June and would be open on a seasonal basis until the end of October.

The authority said the openings followed the saving of a toilet earmarked for closure at Monsal Head, while new toilets are planned at Darley Dale's Whitworth Centre.
