Scullery
(gcide) | Scullery \Scul"ler*y\ (sk[u^]l"l[~e]r*[y^]), n.; pl.
Sculleries (sk[u^]l"l[~e]r*[i^]z). [Probably originally, a
place for washing dishes, and for swillery, fr. OE. swilen to
wash, AS. swilian (see Swill to wash, to drink), but
influenced either by Icel. skola, skyla, Dan. skylle, or by
OF. escuelier a place for keeping dishes, fr. escuele a dish,
F. ['e]cuelle, fr. L. scutella a salver, waiter (cf.
Scuttle a basket); or perhaps the English word is
immediately from the OF. escuelier; cf. OE. squyllare a
dishwasher.]
1. A place where dishes, kettles, and culinary utensils, are
cleaned and kept; also, a room attached to the kitchen,
where the coarse work is done; a back kitchen.
[1913 Webster]
2. Hence, refuse; filth; offal. [Obs.] --Gauden.
