This life of this wash house in nearby Coulanges was short lived -1878 to 1973. However, in 1999, it was restored to be used as a picnic spot for hikers and cyclists.
La vie de ce lavoir à Coulanges, tout près de chez nous, n’a pas durée longtemps : 1878 à 1973. Mai en 1999, il a été restauré à l’intention des randonneurs.et cyclistes.
That looks so inviting for a picnic with the bottle of white/rosé wine (and or feet) in the water!
The distance between the tables and benches seemed a little high to us. Better for eating biscuits.
I’ve heard of these, but they were never a tradition in Canada.
