                                                 Castle assessment 13/3

Remember you need to explain the features of the three castles (motte and Bailey, stone keep and concentric) and their strengths and weaknesses. You need to explain the reasons for change from each castle type and the reason for the eventual redundancy. (Not required)

In the picture below outline sthe basic format. You will draw/create the three castles (they don't need to be crazy big or super detailed, just enough to to be able to explain the key points) and all their explaining happens in their recording. 

If you have any other questions let me know. 








Your visual representation needs to describe some types of medieval castles and explain why designers had to change them. 


Describe and visually represent an early medieval castle design (Motte and Bailey, outline some strengths and weakenesses with it.

Describe and visually represent the type of castle that replaced the one you wrote about (Stone Keep) and outline some strengths and weaknesses with it.

Describe and visually represent a late design of medieval castle (Concentric) and explain why castles eventually became redundant as a form of defense.

Ensure you reference all materials correctly
