Uncovering Secret Features of Historic Houses
One of the interesting features of historic houses is the "priest hole" and other secret spaces. These were conceived by ingenious residents, architects, and designers as practical and aesthetic solutions to problems they faced.
For example, the "wig warmer" is a notable feature. Other secret features include hidden rooms and compartments, such as the priest hole, which was used to hide priests during times of persecution.
Each house tells a story, and the older the house, the more chapters that story has.
- Priest holes: hidden spaces used to conceal priests
- Wig warmers: a feature used to warm wigs
- Hidden rooms and compartments: secret spaces used for various purposes
These secret features are a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of the people who designed and lived in these historic houses.
