a bailey is purple and made out of stone and a wall is hard.
The inner bailey is the enclosed courtyard of a castle. It comes from the Motte and bailey when they were first built. As the castle grew the stone walls went up in front of the wooden and the other defenses were created the bailey stayed. The bailey housed the staples, mews, laundry, and other things.

There are quite a few simerlarities between a Motte and Bailey castle and a Stone Keep castle: * Both types of castles have an curtain wall running around the side of the castle * They both also have a keep in the middle of the castle * In the area between the keep and the curtain wall is a few buildings like stables of guardrooms.
A Square Keep castle usually sits on a hill. It only has 1 wall of defence, whereas a concentric castle usually has about 3 thick walls. Concentric's also have a keep in the middle that has a wall 2.5 metres thick!

Wood mainly. Just an outer wall with an entrance and a small fort inside. This type of castle would have been called a motte and bailey castle. Motte and bailey castles were later replaced by concentric castles made out of stone.
