A shell on a castle is the round part on top. Since Norman Motte and Bailey castles were first made of wood, the castle was not sturdy enough to support the shell.
Shell keep castles are medieval fortresses that are usually built upon a motte. They are made from stone. Some examples of stone keep castles include the Round Tower on Windsor Castle and the Clifford's Tower on York Castle.

A moat is the small body of water that usually circles the outside of the castle.
Shell keep castles are round rather than boxed. A castle that forms a circle is a perfect example. There are many in England.
they built round keep castles because they did
Round Keep Castles were a type of castle during the medieval times. They were not built on a motte, unlike shell keeps. They were an adaptation of the square keep castles except they had round or polygonal walls. Medieval builders couldn't make the round keep castles as big as the square keep castles, so they were often cramped for space.
