Lamswood Root Cellar Potato Pounds

Looking down through a laddered hatch entrance to the interior of a root cellar where potatoes are distributed in three wooden pounds and a white bucket.

Potatoes stored in pounds inside Bill Lamswood’s root cellar in Portugal Cove-St. Phillips. This root cellar was originally built in the 1850s by Richard Squires and is still in use by the Lamswood’s today.
