Bute, Rothesay Pier Gentlemen's Public Toilets, Category A listed restroom at Rothesay Pier, Scotland

The Victorian gentlemen's toilets feature marble walls, ceramic tiles, glass cisterns, copper pipes, and a central six-sided urinal with ornate decorations throughout the facility.

Built in 1899 by Rothesay Harbour Trust for £530, these facilities served travelers arriving by steamers during the peak of Scottish seaside tourism.

The men-only design of the original facility reflects social standards of Victorian Scotland, when gender-separated spaces were strictly maintained in public buildings.

Located near the ferry terminal on Victoria Street, the renovated facilities remain open daily and include modern amenities added during the 1994 restoration.

One urinal bears the coat of arms marking the visit of Prince Charles, Duke of Rothesay, making these toilets a facility with royal connections.
