Duncraig Castle, Laundry

Laundry (19th Century)

What is recorded here

The separate laundry building suggests water, soap and heavy cloth once moved through that place under human hands, perhaps in rain or winter dark. The castle itself may have commanded the land, but the laundry served the people inside it, repeating a modest and vital ritual beneath grander rooms.
