This is an early washing machine and mangle. The washing is put in the wooden tub which is turned using the handle. Wooden slats inside the tub help to tumble the clothes. The clothes are then put through the mangle. |
Roll over this photo to switch between the washing machine in the museum's collection and a photograph of the exterior of Knightshayes Court laundry at Bolham. |
