Part of a house or building lying behind and separate from the main building, subsidiary to the front or main part. In Anglo-Saxon usage, “gonge,” in ancient castle or monastery usage “necessarium” or “reredorter,” and in United States usage “outhouse” or “privy” when separate from the main building.
