Dear All,

Completely off topic, but did you know that J.R.R. Tolkien said 'cellar-
door' was the most beautiful word in the English language?

Not so off topic: I read somewhere (now have lost the reference, of
course) that externally entered cellars were particularly associated
with Low Countries buildings.

Best wishes to all,

Pat
