A space in the wall where a door should be.......

Looks very old... on what kind of building 4rky?

@madeinnl
This was the side wall of a very large house down a tiny mews near the seafront. The house is very old - early/mid 19th century at a guess.

I wonder if it ever was a door! There are some old houses round here with bricked up windows, I think a throwback from the window tax in the 18th and 19thC.

@4rky so in the old days maybe it was a door :) looks way older than 19th century...

@madeinnl
I did quick google - some houses in that area where built mid/late 18th century :)

@rosie00

Interesting find. A burglar isn't going to get into that house is he.

[Diana]

A great shot and find.

[Julienne Jones]

I wonder where it led

[sally agnew]

Very odd :)

[Yao RL]

Interesting, just not walk into it.

[Henri Russell]

I guess they changed their mind. Nice find. Interesting, @rosie00 , I was not aware of the window taxes.

[JoeV]

Nice find, great texture.

I like the simplicity of this!

Did you try just running at it :-) You never know :-) Love the framing around the no door. Very cool :-)
