“When you look at the other listing photos there is one that shows the ‘trophy’ room. This room has a two level ceiling, and you will notice a hogs head and a fish on the wall. The overhead door backs into the space that is above the lower ceiling section.” [Bill, commenting on Spring Home Listing Photo of the Day: Easy Access]

Wow that would be hard to repair if it broke!
It needs a sign above the door: “Trophy Wife, Trophy LIFE”
That’s called a “fur-down.” :-)
/\ ohhhhh, egad.
How funny! In this house it is indeed a “fur down”. I did not want to use the fir down term in my description as many may not be familiar with the term. Now they are.
I have been familiar with the word/ concept for a long time– but where does the term “fur down” come from? What a weird term…..
Fur-down comes from furring which is a construction term adopted from clothing. I think. But I’m not an entomologist.
