OUTHOUSES: 4 Things You Should Know

Ah, the outhouse.

An invention that was once so necessary to everyday life has now been phased out in favor of modern plumbing.

Outhouses are still being built and used today. I know because I've been researching, building proper outhouse and repairing and restoring some over 300 yrs old. I've been doing this since prior to the turn of the century. I like it when folk build their own as it gives them a feeling of satisfaction but they should consult with a full time builder for advice. Few folk know more about these, if any. I would keep away from the crescent meaning info you provided as it just isn't so. I can name the sources of this erroneous info and explain why what you say doesn't make sense. But there were some nice things in your presentation & you certainly are a better speaker than me.
