Thanks for the link, Tina-Kate! That was a riveting article and well worth the relatively short time it took to read.
Now I'm thinking that tunnel had a use, other than being a storage place for unwanted things. An escape route or hiding place? I wonder if the owner could possibly track down the blueprint.
That tunnel was brick and took a lot of work to build. I think it must have been used somehow - and after reading that article there's probably a great story behind that.
Knowing or not knowing, it was still great.
