Cookhouse

[5] In the 1930s, the Civilian Conservation Corps worked in many remote areas, like the Malheur National Forest in the Ochoco Mountains of eastern Oregon.

[7] A wannigan was a kitchen built on a raft which followed the log drivers down the river,[8] both serving meals[9] and providing tents and blankets for the night if no better accommodations were available.

[11] In Iran, a common feature in homes prior to the 20th century was to have a cookhouse separate from the residence.

[12] A military version of the cookhouse is the galley, the compartment of a ship, train, or aircraft where food is cooked and prepared for consumption in the mess.

[13] In the Eastern Cape province of South Africa, 170 kilometres (110 mi) north of Port Elizabeth, the town of Cookhouse may have gotten its name from a small stone house used for shelter and cooking by troops camping on the bank of the Great Fish River.
