单词 tackle-house
释义

tackle-housen.

Etymology: < tackle n. + house n.1 and int.
Obsolete.
Apparently either, A house in which porters employed in loading and unloading ships kept their tackle; or, A house having a tackle or pulley for hoisting heavy goods; a warehouse for lading and unlading merchandise going or coming by sea. In London each of the twelve great Merchant Companies had formerly the right to have its own tackle-house, with its porter or porters, and in some of them the titular office of ‘tackle-house porter’ or ‘tackle-porter’ still survives: see quot. 1861 at Compounds, tackle-porter n. quot. 1909. The tackle-houses at Southwold were on the quay of a creek, evidently for the loading and unloading of vessels lying there; those at London may have been on the river's brink.
