Description

Mrs. M. E. Scott churning cream into butter after separating it from the milk using a wooden butter churn, at her home in West Stonesdale ( Swaledale). The cream is being churned in an upright wooden churn with a holed lid, into which a staff is inserted. The staff is vigorously worked up and down until the butter comes. The buttermilk will then be poured off and the butter washed with cold water. Upright churns were a part of the traditional dairying equipment found in a Dales kitchen. Mounted on Photo File card. With typed note. Card 3 in a series of 13.
