As weapons got better it was important that castle design and defence did too! You can clearly see in this image how the concentric castle had real strengths…

As well as building the castles for defence, the Normans also built great churches. Most of the bishops were replaced by Norman bishops, but they followed the same religion and everyone followed the word of The Pope anyway.
Where is this?
“At your request”… wrote Herbert de Losinga, first Bishop of Norwich, to the men of Lynn in 1101, "I have begun to build a church at Lynn" and St Margaret's entered the town's history, standing in the Saturday Market Place at the heart of the oldest part of the town.

What was the best way to attack and defend each castle?Date:
Sapper: A soldier who’s job it was to mine under a castle to make it collapsePortcullis: Spiked gate to protect the castle entrance, could be dropped on attacking soldiers!Siege: Setting up camp outside a castle, hoping to starve the castle into surrenderTrebuchet: Used to fire rocks and corpses into a castle, usually used during a siege
Aim: To evaluate the different ways to attack and defend castles and decide which attack was best for attacking each of our Norman castles.

As we go through this lesson, you’ll be filling in your sheet on ways to attack a castle. You should include some notes in each section and at the end you’ll decide which castle each attack is most suited to…

7. Siege
How it works Good Points Bad Points Best castle to attack
The best time to attack using a siege would be spring as the supplies within the castle from the previous castle would be running low. A castle can only withstand a siege with the amount of food and water they have inside.
Water was probably more important than food, so the attackers sent over corpses, heads, animals etc hoping to get them into the wells and poison the water – not to mention the psychological affect of seeing your own men being flung over your walls
