Maylord Orchards Toilets Closed

[Hereford Voice]

Maylord Orchards shopping centre in Hereford has closed their public toilets due to financial pressures. A spokesperson said it's no longer viable for the toilets to be kept open due to the cost of maintaining them.

Simon Whiting, centre manager, said:

"It is with much regret that as from today the Maylord Shopping Centre toilets will be closed until further notice.

"The closure is a reflection of the current retail climate whereby the financial strain has meant maintaining and managing the toilets is no longer feasible.

"We will continue to monitor and review with the hope being that we will be able to reopen in the not too distant future."

A notice on the Maylord Orchards Facebook page yesterday said:

It is no wonder that less and less people shop in Hereford. This place will be closing next mark my words, I cannot see how it is costing so much to keep a couple of toilets clean, we have 2 toilets at home! It is not like there are loads to clean.
