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.

It would be interesting to find out more about the tunnel. I wonder if it would be on a blueprint or if it is a secret passage? Very good article Tina-Kate.
