Garderobe
They ahd a couple of these - quite something at that time in our history. The toilets are a bit scarey now and very windy - no glass in the windows. Apparently they would have used soft wool as toilet paper and put herbs etc down to combat whiffs - but surprisingly enough the smell of amonia from urine deterred moths so they used to hang their clothes in here - hmmm, think I'd prefer holes in my clothes than stinking of wee personally.
