Tudor-era tunnels have been uncovered at the "New Hall" school site in Chelmsford, England.
They are believed to be linked to King Henry VIII's lost Beaulieu Palace. The find has attracted archaeologists' attention.
According to Oxu.Az citing "Heritage Daily", investigations are ongoing. During restoration work, the entrance to an underground brick tunnel was found.
Along with the tunnel, pottery fragments, vessels, glass bottles, and animal bones were also discovered. Initial studies indicate the finds date back to the Tudor period.
Students and staff at the school are also intrigued. The exact purpose of the tunnels remains unknown.
Historians speculate they were used as service passages, part of the palace infrastructure, or storage. Further research will continue in the coming months.
