SCULLERY

This article appears in Volume V24, Page 488 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: SAR-SCY
SCULLERY , a back-kitchen, the
place
  where dishes, plates, kettles, &c., are washed and cleaned, and the rough
work
  connected with the domestic service of a
house
  is performed. The Med.
Lat. scutellarius, keeper of dishes and plates (scutella), became in O. Fr. escueillier or sculier, whence in
English
  sculler, squiler, &c. A " sergeaunt-squylloure " is found amongst the officials of the royal
household
 ; and the Promptorium parvulorum, dating about 1400, glosses lixa, a sutler or camp-cook, by " squyllare, dysche-wescheare." " Scullion," a kitchen-wench, has been naturally connected with scullery, but is derived from 0. Fr. escouillon, dish-
cloth
 , cf. Span. escobillon,
spring
  for a gun, ultimately from Lat. scopa, birch tree, scopae, broom of birch twigs.
