When William of Normandy took over the throne in England the first type of castle he introduced was the motte and bailey castle. A few years later some of the motte and bailey castles where upgraded to concentric castles.
Motte and Bailey Castles started in the Norman time, After King William Duke of Normandy. They were built in England, Northrubria. :)

HM The Queen, when the castles were built by William Duke of Normandy they belonged to him so they have been pasted down and now HM The Queen owns them.
William duke of Normandy was a very stern and violent man . He wanted to keep his place he built castles around the place . He always liked to keep the poor in their place and made sure they did not come to the top . He is bad !
At first it was simply a castle made out of wood surrounded by a motte. Surrounding the motte was the bailey. And surrounding that was the wooden wall (this was how the normans built their castles, because king William was from Normandy and now he is king of England, he built Norman castles in England). This was all to easy to attack so they eventually built a more modern castle.
The first M&B castle built by William 1 was aat Pevensey, inside a Roman fort. It may have been a pre fabricated castle brought by ship from Normandy.
motte and bailey castles were the first castles built by william and later stone castles came around they were first rectangular but then were made circular which was better defence. e.t.c. ;-)
William The Conquer of Normandy invaded England in 1066. At this time Normandy was a country north of France. He had churches, castles & towers built in the Norman style of his homeland. As time passed Normandy became, and remains, a part of France.
