The castles now had a Gatehouse that protected more the castle. Also, now the drawbridge was well-guarded. The Windsor castles were very different from the Moat and Bailey castles, not only because their material. There was no tower or keep, instead the main rooms were protected by the thick and strong outerwall. ]]> 2021-06-18 17:15:24 UTC https://padlet.com/sthorne881/71sjay7xbw838u86/wish/1614701869 1200 - The castle's walls were now much thicker they almost measured 5 metres thick, things seemed impossible for any attacker and now the castles were so well defended it would have taken forever to break pass (Concentric castle). sthorne881 https://padlet.com/sthorne881/71sjay7xbw838u86/wish/1614706884 2021-06-18 17:18:51 UTC https://padlet.com/sthorne881/71sjay7xbw838u86/wish/1614706884 1400- The country became more peaceful so there was no need to spent money on expensive castles.
