Best Answer

The good points of a castle are that they were good for defense against attackers. They centralized many people to defend the castle. They were tall with towers to see anyone approaching. Some bad points would be they were dark, damp, and cold.They had poor air circulation. The were also very expensive to build and no defense against cannons and mortar.

* They were cheap because they were made out of wood which was very common in those days * They were easy to build because wood is light * They were also quick to build and would be built within a few weeks * They are very flammable so if under attack, the attackers would probably get torches and burn the castle down * Motte and Bailey castles rot within a few years so they can't be used in the future but is for short term use * Because they were very light, the walls were easy to knock down * The walls are only a few feet high so the attackers would be able to fire arrows over the walls easily * The walls are a few meters thick so they are very, very hard to knock down * They are made out of stone which is very heavy, this makes it even harder to be knocked down * Unlike the Motte and Bailey castles, they don't burn * Also unlike the Motte and Bailey castles, they don't rot within a few years but will last for centuries to come (They still stand today) * The stone is very heavy making it hard to build * The stone being very heavy also means that it takes ages to build the castles * Stone was very expensive than wood because attaining stone was much harder than getting wood * The towers were a one way up so if the attackers go up it, the defenders up there were stuck up there
