What exactly is larder?

Never mind:
A larder is a cool area for storing food prior to use. Larders were commonplace in houses before the widespread use of the refrigerator.
Essential qualities of a larder are that it should be:
as cool as possible
close to food preparation areas
constructed so as to exclude flies and vermin
easy to keep clean
equipped with shelves and cupboards appropriate to the food being stored.
