The spandrels of the four-centred arches contain Saracen's heads, the crest of Sir Rd. Weston the owner, and bunches of pomegranates, the badge of Catharine of Arragon, implying a date not later than 1527, when Henry VIII was actively promoting her divorce. 1 Few important buildings were erected during the latter part of the reign of Henry VIII. The times were too unsettled ; the uncertain temper of that monarch and his treatment of Wolsey with regard to his acquisition of Hampton Court probabl...y acted as deterrents to those of his subjects who were disposed to spend their new-gotten riches in building. One of the few was the palace of Nonsuch near Ewell in Surrey, begun after 1537 by Henry, and left unfinished at his death, when it passed into the hands of Lord Arundel, who completed it. The name associated with its design is Toto del Nunziata, an Italian. The building afterwards came into the possession of Charles II, and was given by him to Lady Castlemaine, who ordered it to be pulled down and sold as old materials.
