An Aldershot Oven

Food was cooked in an Aldershot oven which consisted of sheet iron covered with earth and grass “Sods”. Wood was first burnt in the oven. After the fire had been burning about an hour, all the fire was pulled out, the meat etc. was placed inside, and the oven was then sealed with a sheet iron cover and clay. After an appropriate time the cover was removed and the meat would be beautifully cooked.
