RecordPlaque< 1 of 1 > Back From Haddington, East Lothian
PlaqueThis earthenware plaque dates from the 19th century. It is from a domestic water closet from a house in Haddington in East Lothian. The small oval plaque is transfer-printed in red. It bears the words 'Silent / "Edina" / Pat No 6716'. In the 19th century, the water closet, with its water-flushed sewage, gradually replaced the insanitary earth closet, waste from which had to be dumped in the street.
