milk-house
Farm cooling shed
A milk-house is a small outbuilding on a farm where milk is stored and processed.
Traditionally built over a spring or with thick stone walls to stay cool, milk-houses kept fresh milk, cream, and butter from spoiling before refrigeration: The farmer carried the pails to the milk-house after the morning milking.
