According to several account extracts in the years 1624 – 1627, Drebbel has been active with garden design and waterworks at New Hall. Drebbel's work was probably in the manner of things established a few years before by foreign engineers imported to design gardens and waterworks. These were men such as Salomon de Caus and Constantine de Servi who were employed at the shortlived court of Henry, Prince of Wales, and de Caus' brother Isaac who, in the early 1620s, was working on a grotto beneath the Whitehall Banqueting House and at Woburn.
