I went there only once and stayed for maybe half-an-hour. I think it was October; certainly after the season had ended, and the place looked closed. Maybe nothing much happens even when the warm days are upon it. So I took a picture, and I've spent far more time messing around with that picture than I ever did at the seafront taking it. They say the place is a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of urban life, a magnet for those seeking a tranquil coastal retreat. I'd agree with that. There was no suggestion of hustle, nor bustle, and the tranquility was like Mogadon.

Public Inconvenience

14 Dec 2018 2 1 206
In 2016 the BBC reported that some UK High Streets and public spaces no longer had any council-run public toilets. This photograph is a record of a closed public lavatory in Melksham, Wiltshire. It is situated between a public recreation ground and shops, and is adjacent to a car park. A funfair sometimes sets up attractions in the part of this car park closest to the toilets. There is no legal requirement for local authorities to provide public lavatories. Relentless pressure on council spending has resulted in many closures. At the time of the report, at least 1,782 facilities had been closed across the UK during the previous decade. Ten areas, including Newcastle, Merthyr Tydfil in south Wales and Wandsworth in south London, had no council-run public toilets at all. Public toilets have existed on UK High Streets for more than 150 years. They are vital for public health and decency. The absence of these amenities is felt especially hard by the elderly, people who drive for a living, and the homeless.

I have photographed the doors of Lyme gallery and made them into art. Maybe.
