[Sca-cooks] Airing cupboard

My guess would be what used to be called a pie safe.  Basically, it's
a cabinet with hole-ridden sheet metal for door panels and wall
panels.  You could put pies, bread & whatnot (can't forget the
whatnot) to cool on its shelves & not worry about flies or probing
fingers.

Was I close?
