What does the story of the seige of rochester tell you about the weakness of square keeps and how could you solve this weakness?
The siege of Rochester Castle in 1215 highlights the vulnerabilities of square keeps, particularly their limited defensive capabilities against siege tactics, such as mining and the use of siege engines. The structure's corners and sheer walls made it difficult to defend effectively against attackers who could exploit these weaknesses. To address this vulnerability, castle designers could incorporate rounded towers and thicker walls to enhance structural integrity and improve defensive angles, while also integrating more advanced fortifications like crenellations and arrow slits for better protection and visibility.
