My Nan always called it..

Ahh well we must have been poor just a kitchen and a pantry
Still don't know what an amontillado is ?

My Nan had a kitchen on one side of the back of the cottage, on the other side was the scullery where there was a walk in larder with thick stone slab and a meat safe. The same area had a large Belfast sink (she never had one in the kitchen).
Off of that was the wash house, complete with a mangle. The chicken food (potato peelings etc) was cooked out there too, in a beat up old saucepan on a Primus stove.

My Nan had a scullery,
We have just made a model Anderson shelter out of corrugated card for DGD aged 9, for her school project on WW2. We had one in our garden, too.

The air raid shelter in the garden was a dug out...a mound of of earth dug deep in thw grouns covered with corrugated metal ..in service she also had a pantry and a scullery with copper and mangle

And a pocket handkerchief of a garden with an Anderson shelter of course.

My granny was in service from the age of 14 and she called the kitchen the scullery.

My Nan had a scullery - she too had been in service. Their house was a very tall narrow London terrace with a room to each floor. There was a cellar (with an intriguing knife grinder and mangle); then above that a basement with the scullery and a tiny little dining room; above that a living room with a movable partition; then a floor with a small room (where the lodger, Miss Carpenter,lived - she terrified me!)and a bathroom with an equally terrifying gas geyser over the bath; then a floor with two bedrooms; then the attic where we slept when we went there at Christmas and could look out over the rooftops of Clapham - like in Mary Poppins. I have very vivid memories of it all.

I looked up the house on rightmove a while ago and it has been divided into flats, each worth about £500K - unbelievable!

My Nan had a scullery, never called it a kitchen

BlueBelle thing is, we also had a pantry, which was a sort of large walk in larder type thing, with a meat safe, (anyone remember those?) and a slate shelf.

I think I m going for something different ours wasn't a room big enough for preparation and fridges or washing machines None of which Nanny had it was a small shelf lined room for all the food and stuff I had it turned into the downstairs loo after I moved in a Nans house
What the hecks a amontillado?

My nan called it the back kitchen too phoenix. She was a mill girl though so hadn't got it from being in service.

Our last house was a 3 storey Edwardian semi and the other half hadn't been modernised. They had a kitchen and a back kitchen. The kitchen seemed to be used for preparation and the back kitchen had a range, modern fridge and washing machine etc.

They also still had the bell board. i don't know why, I managed to make myself heard on the top floor from the kitchen - no trouble!
