Remnants of Henry VIII's long-lost castle found in unexpected location, researcher reveals

Archaeologist Gemma Ainslie identified stonework from Sandown Castle, a fortification built by Henry VIII in the 16th century on the Isle of Sheppey, at two locations in Kent: Dover Castle and Eastry Union Chapel, according to Fox News Digital. The castle was lost to coastal erosion and sinking land over centuries. Ainslie's research traced architectural fragments to their original structure through comparative analysis of the stone and construction techniques.
