HER 3806 - Drain of Nonsuch Palace
In August 1987 a contractor cut though a brick culvert, which measured 0.63m wide and 0.64m high internally; the inside of the top of the vault was about 1.53m below ground level. The arch was four-centred with a rise of 0.18m from the springing to the apex. It was 0.24m thick and the side walls were both 0.48m thick. The floor was of brick. It was almost certainly the main drain of Nonsuch Palace.
