Historic town hall toilets could be refurbished as part of extensive repair package AN HISTORIC North-East town hall could see extensive repair work a planning application to Durham County Council has revealed. The start of the proposed work could be on the ground floor toilets which could be refurbished according to the proposal. The facilities could see the existing OSB floor replaced with a marine plywood floor which would make the floor impervious to the passage of moisture. A new integrated plumbing system has also been proposed along with new WC pans and high-level cisterns together with pedestal washbasins. Victorian effect urinals and column radiators will replace the contemporary fittings to give the facilities a more traditional look.
