Little Ease, a windowless vault beneath the White Tower in the Tower of London, measuring 1.2m square.

from Old and New London, by Walter Thornbury (1878)

The cross-chamber vault, or Little Ease, is darker and damper than its two brethren. There is some ground for belief, says Mr. Dixon, that Little Ease was the lodging of Guy Fawkes.
