The Milk Doors Still Hiding in Plain Sight

Many old milk doors are still there today. Some have been painted over or sealed shut, while others still open.

Homeowners have found new uses for them, from parcel drop-offs to tiny display cupboards.

There are similar ideas around the world. In Florence, Italy, small 'wine windows' in old walls were once used to sell wine directly to customers.

So next time you walk past an older house, look closely. That little door is a small piece of everyday history.
