My entry for Thursday Doors and CFFC
Today I have more doors from Seaton Delaval. They are all outer buildings, the first being a stable. The latter two are photos of an ice house which were used by the rich way before fridges were invented.




My entry for Thursday Doors and CFFC
Today I have more doors from Seaton Delaval. They are all outer buildings, the first being a stable. The latter two are photos of an ice house which were used by the rich way before fridges were invented.
What cool photos you have provided us with this week. 😀
I enjoyed seeing the ice house and the reminder about how these here indoor refrigerators are gifts!!
I can remember when we got our first fridge as a kid, it was a second hand gas fridge. I’ve never come across a gas fridge since. We just used a pantry before that. [probably showing my age]
Wow – never knew they had a gas fridge (fun to learn new stuff) and the house my dad grew up in had a huge pantry and I was told there were parts for keeping things cold and all that – so I kind of can imagine the one you might have had in your house.

switching gears to the present – long gone are the days of having fridges (or washer and driers) that last decades – just made to fail (sigh)
The stables look like a pretty snazzy place for horses. I love the ice house. The door is fantastic and the structure itself is beautiful. Modern conveniences certainly do make live easier.
The stables were really big so I don’t know if they had a lot of horses at one time.
These are great finds. That stable is quite something, not at all what you’d find in the western US. 🙂

I don’t think we’d see many stables like that here either, it’s the only one I have seen like that.
