A remarkable feat of 19th-century joinery | Brief letters
George Browne’s fitted kitchen | Regional restaurants | National Dried Milk | Human infestation | Lysistrata revisited
Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky’s fitted kitchen was not the first (‘That damned kitchen!’ How the inventor of the fitted kitchen came to see it as a curse, 12 November). George Browne, of Troutbeck in the Lake District, built his stunning fitted kitchen in the early 1800s. It would be hard to adapt the design to modern kitchens, but it’s a remarkable feat of joinery that’s worth seeing at Browne’s farmhouse, Townend, which is now in the care of the National Trust.
