Default What makes a bathroom a bathroom?

One thing I found interesting about our bathroom is that there is only
floor where the feet of the bath are, the rest of the boards are sawn off at
the edges. I assume this makes plumbing a lot easier.

I'm thinking about converting a downstairs bathroom to a utility room:
retaining the loo and basin (possibly replacing it with one of a

mains sockets.

Does taking out the bath mean that the bathroom building regs no longer
apply? If not, what is the criterion which defines a bathroom and means
that no sockets are allowed?

Thanks.


If you take any notice of the Yanks, its still a bathroom even if only
ever built containing a long drop bog!
