Lavoir with a clerestory. Beautifully maintained, but locked and with windows barred. Seen with Rosy and Michel, 2010.
Lavoir with a bell-tower. On the inside, only one of two basins preserved. Michel pointed out that the sloping edge of the basin distinguishes a lavoir from an abreuvoir.
On the hill-side one street below the N6 out of town toward Auxerre. Spring is in a vault under the street.
Very large, very elegant, very formal municipal structure. Impressive volume of water flowing through. With Rosy and Michel in 2010.
The lavoir as fortress in the kingdom of the dwarves. Sits below grade on the road to St-Florentin and looks as though it may be on private property. Far-side door must be large enough for access, but what's inside remains a mystery.
