The table at which they are working seems too low for comfort. Maybe
it's an eating-height table being used as a work table? Or an
original-height table with modern-height people? (Although I wouldn't
have thought people were that much taller now.)
I once saw the kitchen at Haddon Hall; here is the picture off their website.
