Description

The Former Shelter and Archway, constructed in 1927 is a distinctive brick and stone building comprising two parts. Historically used as public conveniences, it now serves as the principle entrance to Planation Hill, also known as Valley Gardens.

The building is protected from demolition and represents an important element of Scarborough's Heritage value. The building requires minor structural repairs and offers significant potential for sensitive restoration and re-use.
