Plutôt rares au Québec, voici un bel exemplaire de ce qu'on qualifiait de bécosse, déformation de l'anglais "back house" pour décrire la cabane qui servait de toilette au siècle dernier.
***************
Rather rare these days in Quebec, here is good exemple of what was called "bécosse", a deformation of the English "back house" to describe the cabin that served as a toilet in the last century.
Location: Les dépendances du cimetière All Saints semblent être une simple cabane en bois sur un trou creusé recouvert d'un siège conventionnel.
Il y a un système de fermeture à l'extérieur mais on ne peut pas barrer la porte de l'intérieur.
*****
The outhouse at All Saints Cemetery appear to be a simple log cabin on a dug hole covered with a conventional toilet seat.
There is a locking system on the outside, but you cannot lock the door from the inside.
How many holes?: Not listed
Construction: Not listed
