the old range, in the kitchen...

... at The Hospital of St Cross and Almshouse of Noble Poverty.

Anyone fancy cooking tomorrow's Sunday roast on this?

[Ivan]

Love it, super bricks/textures/soot! Thank goodness for modern hobs/ovens! (It probably tasted good though!)

[Karen B.]

I expect many a splendid meal was cooked on that old range, don't think I would like to try it now. Wonderful picture.

[Beryl Lloyd]

Oooh !! Can you imagine the delicious flavour of a spit-roast done in front of the great log-fire with potatoes roasting in the pan below and being basted with the drippings from the roast above !----I could carry on !! Lovely capture Hazel but loos as if the black -leading has not been done for some time !!

[Tracey H-N]

It sure tells a story !

A super shot it must have been hard work and very hot .

[Catherine W.]

Hmmm think I will pass but I guess it would be better than a campfire. Cool find and shot!

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Great capture of a very interesting looking place. I love all the shapes and textures, too.

[Skip Tribby - ​🖖]

Superb capture Hazel!

[Penelope Ann]

Glad we have more modern appliances today but I do still cook on top of the wood burning stove for economy! Well done on your well deserved recognition

[Mary Downing Hahn]

I can't even cook a roast properly in an electric oven! Love the texture of the bricks, the soot, the composition, but definitely would give up cooking if this was what I had to use..

[Richard Creese]

Great shot of a lovely old cooker :-)

[Faye Turner]

Love this shot!

[Margaret Brown]

Wonderful capture of a bygone age, looks as if it's been well used in years gone by

[Molly]

A lovely sharp capture. Great to see these old ranges preserved.

[Rosie Kind]

Lovely shot

[Karin Hirsch]

Aren't we so much better of nowadays. I wouldn't have like to do all my cooking and baking here. Great it of history

[Tammy]

I love all the detail here - and I have to say that I am glad I don't have to cook there!

[Tammi]

Love how you were able to capture a bit of the past in this shot. Like all the detail!

[Nita]

Oh, my. This is a really great thing to look at and it makes me very thank for modern conveniences.

[Pyrrhula]

I`m glad Ina is doing our cooking. But a young pork roasted on this I`ll do .
Great capture of this beautiful fire place
