A new-look £13m garden centre in Lancashire has opened - and the men's toilets could prove to be one of its biggest attractions.
As well as the usual pots, plants and gifts, the popular Barton Grange complex on the A6 at Brock houses the UK's only flower-shaped urinals – shipped all the way from San Francisco in the States.

The toilets were one of the biggest draws when the centre opened its doors on Wednesday, with a queue of women waiting to have a peek inside the gents.

Guy Topping, managing director, said: "My wife Carol designed all the interior decor of the toilets and we imported the urinals.

"But we are finding we're getting more ladies in the gents at the moment."

The 52-acre site at the foot of the Trough of Bowland is two-and-a-half miles north of the old site and is likely to attract thousands of visitors on busy days.

I wonder why women will queue up to view men's urinals.

I'd like to take a peek inside women's toilets.

I need to know why they always go in together, and what they do in there for half an hour.

If we told you what we do in there... we'd have to kill you, its for your own safety :P

Does this mean the ladies toilets are "flowers" too? Or are barton grange just trying to bring out the femenine side in the male visitors? lol
