Extract

I have the honour to send you herewith a very rude and imperfect sketch of one of the tiles which cover some ducts or drains, now discernible in the cliff at Reculver in Kent, about eight feet below the surface of the Roman station.

I call these ducts, or drains, because I am unable to determine whether they were merely drains or sewers to the camp, or whether they were ducts to a bath.
