Stone castles were good because unlike Motte and Bailey castles they could last longer and they couldn't catch fire as easily even though they they took longer to build. Also, Stone castles were a good source to show your religeon and how wealthy you were.
Hope this helps.History is my faveourite subject at school so
I know my stuff! :)
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. ;-)
Because They just had moats and 0pen bridges to get into the castles.
william needed to keep control so he made motte and bailey castles these were not good enough against invasion
"Japanese castles 1540-1640" (2003) by Stephen Turnbull is a good one, but your taste may lie in European castles.

Because before gunpowder castles were virtually impenetrable. They were very good fortresses.
Many of the world's castles are now museums or rented out.
a shape that is rectangular so deal with it
Rectangular is an adjective, not a noun so there is no such thing as a rectangular. You an have a rectangular lamina, a rectangular pyramid, a rectangular prism, a rectangular antiprism and they all have different solid shapes.
it was good because they could be guarded non- stop. so no prisinors could get out and they could only get in when a security guard put them in
In Northamptonshire there are two castles: # Rockingham Castle # Castle Ashby There are many good websites to get some good information about these castles. If you would like to view these websites click on one of the "related links" below.
Not all of them. Some are lived in and very well looked after, so they would be as good as any home.
