What should I put in my underfloor space

Inspired by www.mumsnet.com/Talk/_chat/4168642-In-todays-installment-of-weird-and-inexplicable-shit-we-have-found-when-doing-up-our-house-I-give-you

I have access to an underfloor space in my newbuild property. There is around 1m headroom max.

I have already put original plans for the property along with the original quote for the work. There are some photos of the site before and during the build and current newspapers.

If you had a space like this what would you hide for future generations to find?

Forget the time capsule idea - it’ll be an easy conversion into a wine cave for me.

I have hankered after a spiral wine cellar for years!

Can’t you lower the floor and enjoy the higher floor to ceiling space?

Following, as we have a similar space after recent building works, although we can't block it off or fill it in any way so it's not very secure. But an interesting idea!

I have definitely thought of the wine store but it won't work for that as it wastes more space for the opening than I would gain for the wine.

I can't lower the floor either as the house is built on quite a steep slope. So I have an entry level, which is the floor that has a sloping space underneath, and from there I go down into my lounge/kitchen or up into my bedroom/dressing room/en suite.

I have drawers over the trapdoor to the underground level but they are on wheels as the gas meter is behind.

It really is just something that people would find funny or interesting in 100 years or so. Broken electrical items are going down there as the kind of thing we use now will be obsolete in not too many years.
