A historic landmark in Newcastle is still for sale - for those feeling flush enough to

A historic landmark in Newcastle is still for sale - for those feeling flush enough to buy it.
The Bigg Market underground toilets have been a city fixture for more than a century.
Over a year after council chiefs announced they were for grabs, they re still looking for one customer to spend a penny.
Officials say one party have expressed an interest, although no signs yet over who will take the plunge.
The subterranean structure opposite the Beehive pub may be transformed into a bar or an art gallery.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print capturing a historic landmark in Newcastle that is still up for sale. The Bigg Market underground toilets, an iconic fixture of the city for over a century, await their new owner - someone who possesses both deep pockets and a sense of nostalgia. Despite being announced as available by council chiefs over a year ago, these unique subterranean structures are yet to find their perfect match. However, hope remains as one interested party has expressed curiosity about owning this piece of history. The identity of this potential buyer remains unknown, leaving us eagerly anticipating who will take the plunge. Situated opposite the Beehive pub, these underground toilets have endless possibilities for transformation. Will they be reborn as a trendy bar where patrons can enjoy drinks amidst historical charm? Or perhaps they will become an art gallery showcasing local talent against the backdrop of 20th-century architecture? This evocative print captures not only the timeless beauty of Newcastle's Bigg Market but also serves as a reminder that some treasures are worth preserving and cherishing. So if you're feeling flush enough to make your mark on history and own this remarkable piece of urban heritage, seize this opportunity before it slips away.
