Summary[edit]

Description
English: St-Martin-s-Ouanne, Yonne, France. Old village wash house, located on the downstream side of the bridge just outside the village, on the D18 road leading to Champignelles. The picture shows the minor arm of the river Ouanne feeding the wash house basin ; that arm keeps going on the left hand-side of the photo. The main arm of the river is only a few feet away on the right, 3 ft below. This arm shown here was artificially set up a long time ago. Inquiries made, I cannot find anyone in the village remembering hearing of a time when it was not there. A 96-yr-old local old-timer said that his great-grand-mother had always used to do her washing there ; that takes it back to at least early XIXth century.
Français : St-Martin-s-Ouanne, Yonne, France. Ancien lavoir du village, en aval du pont sur la D18 menant à Champignelles, immédiatement à la sortie du village. La photo montre le bras secondaire de l'Ouanne, qui remplit le bassin du lavoir. Le bras principal de l'Ouanne se trouve à seulement quelques mètres à droite, 1 m en contrebas. Le bras secondaire montré ici est une dérivation artificielle installée de longue date. Un ancien du village dit que son arrière-grand-mère avait toujours lavé son linge ici, ce qui fait remonter le lavoir et son chenal d'alimentation artificiel au moins au début du XIXe siècle.
