Medieval door with cat flap

Chetham’s Library, UK’s oldest public library, was built in 1421 as a college (it was a library from 1653). One of the original doors from that school, seen here, holds a round (and charming) secret: a cat flap! Mice were unwelcome, of course, in a library: they chewed at the books, digesting crucial knowledge, as seen in the other image. A cat was the most effective solution to such book destruction - in combination with a cat flap, to give the predator free access to the premise.
