What is going on with the shower? A stand-in sink only?

I think it's just a standard shower tray but set in an elevated platform thing.Gers said:What is going on with the shower? A stand-in sink only?0 -
Can I ask - what's the 3/2 part of the address about? I've not seen that before...Honi swanky malyponze. Or something.0

Flat number within the tenement building. Each Scottish city seems to have different ways of handling (often several used in same city) but this is likely to mean 3rd floor, then 2nd flat on that floor - 1st flat being that nearest to where the stairs land you on the landing! It can also be written 3F2.YoungBlueEyes said:Can I ask - what's the 3/2 part of the address about? I've not seen that before...Free is my favourite price!1 -

It varies! My late mother's flat started off as 1/L (one up left, being left of the stairs) then it somehow evolved into 1/1. Prices also vary between floors. The ground floor (0) and fourth floor (3) tend to be cheaper than the other two with (usually) the first floor being the more expensive.

The plughole is probably the same height as the bath one would have been. Not all that unusual to put plumbing stuff on an elevated level - saves you the hassle of trying to fit the pipework into the gap under the floor.Gers said:0 -
With it being an upper flat it could be slotted in above a stairwell.Gers said:0 -
I doubt it. That looks like it used to have a perfectly ordinary bath there which would have served well for a shower over it, but someone decided to remove the bath and bodge in a shower tray. I would put it back to an appropriate bath with a shower above it.Dandie89 said:

If they removed a bath it would make no sense not to simply place a tray on the same level.0
