I’ll take the hidden entrance and exit, even if I don’t know what a priest’s hole is.

3 and 4.

I'm sure that you don't need me to send you to Wikipedia for a slightly
biased and not quite correct version of what they are. (they weren't
just for Catholics, others had need of such things at different times
and places)

Of course I looked it up after I voted.Â* I didn’t want to risk seeing Wikipedia send me to an “adustâ€� page with “Priest’s hole redirects hereâ€�.



I won’t comment on whether it did or not.

I may have inadvertently voted twice because my earlier vote didn't seem
to be sent.
