Why this tag ?
I didn't find any tag for this kind of building. A "lavoir" is a place for washing clothes. They are frequently next to a river or a pound. Lavoirs can use well, stream or source water...
In modern countries, they have an historic interest (they also can be used by walkers or cyclists to have a break) whereas in undeveloped areas (where there's no running water) people use lavoirs, that's why historic=* seems inappropriate and we may use amenity=* key instead.
There are a lot of lavoirs in France, more or less one per village, 3 and more in cities. They also exists in others countries, so a tag may be created.
Which tag to use ?
- amenity=lavoir to mark a lavoir
- shelter=yes/no to indicate whether the lavoir is covered or not. The lavoirs are usually covered.
- water=yes/no to indicate whether there is more water flowing in the lavoir. There's still water in most lavoirs.
- access=yes/no This tag is used to indicate whether the lavoir is accessible or not. Currently, the lavoirs may be convicted doors to prevent vandalism.
