The wash-house was an important place of sociability in small towns until the 20th century. To do the laundry, the linen is first boiled in cauldrons before being brought in baskets and wheelbarrows to the washerwomen. The washerwomen rinse it and beat it with beaters, kneeling on the shale slabs which are at the water's edge.
