[QUOTE="Scotley, post: 3761166, member: 11520"] Only light pressure on the door is required to pivot a 5' section of stone wall. Beyond it are 3 stairs leading down into a room. From the looks of empty weapon racks and tumbled down bunks, this was once a barracks or guardroom of some sort. It seems long abandoned and there is nothing of obvious value here, the wooden furniture here having long since succumbed to rot in the underground dampness. A stout iron bar, now quite rusty, leans against the wall at the top of the 3 stairs, near the secret door. Brackets on the wall flank the secret door, and you presume that the iron bar could be placed in the brackets to prevent the door from pivoting/opening. Soulfetter finds the narrow doorway, short passage, and three stairs quite challenging for his immense bulk to negotiate. The space between the pivoted wall section and the doorway into the barracks/guardroom is only a little over two feet wide. It requires most of you to turn sideways to pass, while Soulfetter must shed his gear and squeeze through, getting a few scrapes on his shoulders and hips for his trouble. The exit from the guardroom/barracks is a narrow passage that seems to open into a larger one. [/QUOTE]
