about the structure the Pennsylvania town Spring House, Pennsylvania Image springhouse.jpg thumb right A small spring house near Collegeville, Pennsylvania Collegeville , Pennsylvania . A spring house , or springhouse, is a small building used for refrigeration once commonly found in rural areas before the advent of electric refrigeration. It is usually a one room building constructed over the source of a Springhydrospherespring . The water of the spring maintains a constant cool temperature inside the spring house throughout the year. In settings where no natural spring is available, another source of natural running water, such as a small creek or diverted portion of a larger creek, may be used. Some people put jars of milk in a bucket suspended by a rope in an open mouth well during hot weather. The main use of a spring house is for the long term storage of food that would otherwise spoil, such as meat, fruit or dairy products. In some cases, a spring was used for this purpose without a springhouse.
