In 1977 the public wash house laundry in Nottingham was closed due to redevelopment. This was a public laundry on a industrial scale open to the public for a small cost. This was not only a place to carry out laundry but was a community place of gathering.

The incredulous aloofness of these two men, whose own laundry was perhaps washed by their mothers in a place such as this. They couldn't clean a pair of socks between them.

@anniesoernym 3 дня назад

Their condescension was unbearable. Though I am pretty sure their mothers did not go to a public wash house themselves - apart from the sexism there's definitely also classism at play here 😒

ngl that ironing machine is kickass, wonde if there's any modern equivalent to this.

Similar machines are still used today, I used to use one to iron bedsheets in the back room of a small laundrette

I remember this! I grew up in The Meadows (not as pretty as it sounds). My Mum didn't use it, but some of our neighbours did. There was a particular smell of soap, washing powder and steam as you walked past. Funny how that smell has come back; I had forgotten all about the place

That place looks familiar. Is that where Rose Tyler broke causality trying to save her father on the day of her christening/baptizing?

That underwear being pressed looks adorably retro from today's point of view.

I'll just throw out there that I don't think these ladies had type 2 diabetes.... There is an earlier UK wash house video somewhere here on RU-vid. It is very comforting that this film from 1977, and the one from much earlier are identical.
