First completed 'room'

My 'Priest Hole'
I cut a hole in the subfloor to create a root cellar or Priest Hole under the kitchen floor.  They featured in my fave series of books - The Outlander Series by Diana Gabaldon.  I am not sure if it completely historical correct to have one but I wanted one.  Originally I closed the gaps at the back properly, but once the floor is put over the top it is pretty  dark so I figured the tiny bit of light might be good.  The little Bible has only 6 tissue pages & no writing (baby wanted writing, but once the floor is on it wont matter)  Same with the white blanket, I know it should be grey but I wanted the brightness.  There is 'glass' to the front for viewing purposes.
