Description
English: A Colored bird's Eye View of "A Castle for the Downes;" Probably an Early Design for Walmer and Sundown Castles. 1539 draft of the future castle(s) in Kent, presented to Henry VIII for approval
Русский: Подлинный чертёж однотипных замков Уолмер и Сандаун, вероятно, представленный на утверждение Генриху VIII. Число орудийных амбразур, сравнительно с сохранившимся Уолмером, завышено более чем вдвое. Вероятно, составлен строителями кентских замков Ричардом Бенизом, Уильямом Клементом и Кристофером Дикенсоном.

Author Unsigned. BL says, "It is likely that this drawing came from the drawing office of the Hampton Court team responsible for the construction of the castles in the Downs. Richard Benese was the surveyor, with William Clement and Christopher Dickenson working as master carpenter and master mason."
