Cook’s Quarters built in 1914. A bathroom and kitchen fitted out around 1958. See the classic Hills Hoist is there!

No Modroom, I can't see the Cook, but that doesn't mean she wasn't there ... I'm sure Cooks would need to have clean pinnies each mealtime :)

Maybe the pinnies are invisible now.

They would have to be Modroom, otherwise would be ripped to shreads by the sea breeze by now ...

Fun photos, I think I like the second or third one best, cool textures.

Thanks Mary Stebbins Taitt, the original paint is what you can see bits of - weathered :)

You can probably buy weathered paint in tins in designer shops these days...

You can Caroline - I've used it! Nothing like the original ... ;)

Does it come with lichen spores (or whatever it is that lichen grow from)?

I am master and commander of all pinnies and Australians too.

Ces Adorio said...

Is pinnies the correct spelling? :-)

I don't know Ces, it's what Aussies call pinafores ...

Ooh, I thought it was something else.
