Do you remember your mother or grandmother referring to their fridge as the "icebox"? Have you ever wondered how people kept their ice cream frozen before the existence of modern refrigerators? In this episode, Barbara discusses ice-cutting: the process of harvesting ice, the locations where it was done in Exeter, and the household purpose it served.
