    We love reading your comments, and we're proud to have helped create a community of Mrs Crocombe fans. Many of you have asked similar things, so here is a quick rundown of FAQs.
    For reference, more on ice cream, ice houses and water ices can be found here: bit.ly/2uE7oXN
    WHERE DID ICE COME FROM?
    Like most country houses, ice used at Audley End was harvested from frozen lakes and rivers during the winter (winters were colder in the 19th century).
    It was then packed into the ice house, which at Audley is located up a hill, about half a mile from the house. Ice houses were essentially deep wells, generally with drainage at the bottom, and topped with a small, igloo-like structure with a series of insulated doors to allow access. They could keep ice frozen for several years, to be used for setting jellies or making ices as needed.
    When the Braybrookes were at their London residence, they would have bought ice from a commercial ice dealer such as the Gattis, who had a huge ice house located near what is now Kings Cross (you can still visit it - now as the London Canal Museum). This ice was harvested from North America, Canada and Greenland, shipped across to the UK and stored for sale as it was purer than British river ice. Artificial ice did exist, but was in its infancy.

    WHY CHURN THE WATER ICE BEFORE MOULDING?
    If Mrs Crocombe simply froze her mixture she would get a block of frozen ice - an ice lolly (or ‘popsicle’). Churning it means she obtains something more like a modern day sorbet i.e. with small crystals, which is both nicer to eat and practical to serve. The ice would have been served on the table where diners would help themselves to scoops, easily taken off due to its relatively soft texture.
    WHAT IS AN ICE BOX?
    An ice box (or ice chest/cave) is essentially a fridge (the term refrigerator was in use, though rare in the UK). It consisted of a large wooden box or chest, with a lead box inside. The box was packed with either ice (to set jellies) or ice and salt (if freezing ices in their moulds), and regularly drained. You can see one today by visiting Osborne House on the Isle of Wight: bit.ly/2uCojtB
    WHAT HAPPENED TO THE OTHER CHURN?
    We wanted to show you a different method of making ices. Mrs Crocombe’s other churn is more modern (for 1881), whereas this method covers the introduction of ices to the UK in the early 17th century all the way up until the 1950s in some cases.
    You can replicate it at home using a metal container, such as a coffee canister, and a plastic bowl full of ice and salt. It has the huge advantage that it does not require constant churning - and the metal parts don’t corrode with the salt.

      I think for a family like the Braybrookes, who were rather wealthy, would have a First Footman who would serve their meals for them. So the dishes would be brought out like that to be displayed to the family, and then the Footman would serve the food out onto individual plates for them to eat and essentially wait on them at their dining table like our modern day waiter and waitresses at restaurants.

      So ‘water ice’ would be for when you want to specify something more like a sorbet. ‘Marmalade ice’ would be expected to have some kind of dairy like cream and maybe eggs, so ‘marmalade water ice’ in this case.

      You can still put one together using two buckets or get similar things (but electric now!) Usually if you search for nostalgia ice cream machines, they'll pop up - they generally work more easily for spur of the moment, i-want-to-make-it-now, less preparation intensive ices and ice creams.
