Lewes - Anne of Cleves' House - Passage

An unusual feature of Anne of Cleves' House in Lewes is this wide "passage" beneath the eastern end of the southern wing. In a later house I would call this a "coaching arch" but I would think that it must have had a different purpose when built in the late C15th / early C16th. To see how this feature is positioned in the house, see Image] See also the shared description below:
