mousehole
Tiny wall opening
A mousehole is a small hole in a wall or baseboard where a mouse might enter or live—the kind often depicted in cartoons with an arched opening.
By extension, any cramped opening or confined space: The apartment was a mousehole, but it was cheap.
In oil drilling, the mousehole is a shallow hole in the rig floor where pipe sections are stored vertically before use.
