1825 J. T. Brockett Gloss. North Country Words Neddy, Netty, a certain place that will not bear a written explanation, but which is depicted to the very life in a tail-piece in the first edition of Bewick's ‘Land Birds’ (1797), p. 285.

1866 Newcastle Courant 27 Apr. 2/5 I then went down..to see if I could see Mr Thompson about a job... Thompson is the Inspector of Nuisances. It was some drains for netties.

1903 Eng. Dial. Dict. IV. 255/1 Netty, a privy or water-closet... A common name, amongst the working classes... In common use. In my recollection it was looked upon as a euphemism.

1967 H. W. Sutherland Magnie v. 67 He slowed down at a begrimed statue of a bulking Queen Victoria and shouted, ‘Been to the netty yet?’

1978 ‘R. Lewis’ Uncertain Sound iii. 75 A line of pit cottages..tiny back gardens with outside lavatories, ‘netties’, some of them emptied twice a week by the council.

1992 Independent 4 May 13/5 Our toilet was an outside netty shared between two or three families, where you sat on a hole and hoped the cat wouldn't jump at your backside.

2000 J. Tulloch Season Ticket v. 96 ‘What's the third thing?’ Gerry held his hand out and grasped Sewell's. Sewell placed a spray can in it. ‘Not another air-freshener for the netty?’ smirked Gerry.
