Before modernisation this establishment operated at 80% capacity and provided for 395
users per week. Present attendances are now approaching 1,200 per week at 75% utilisation.
The Tiverton Road Laundry will need to receive similar attention in the near future and in
view of the rapid development on blocks of flats nearby it would seem desirable that the exterior
of the building should be improved in order that it may be in keeping with the surrounding estate.
