How did William Normandy improve the motte and bailey castles?

Motte and Bailey castles help the Normans keep an eye on their people. They built hundreds around the Country. They were able to do this as it was made out of wood. Wood was cheap and easy to get hold of. It only took them a few days to set up a Motte and Bailey castle. Although Motte and Bailey castles were cheap and easy to get hold of, there were some weaknesses: * Wood Sets on fire easily * Wood isn't very strong and can be knocked down easily * Wood rots Despite the weaknesses Motte and Bailey castles decreased the number of rebellions and the Normans managed to keep control of the English better. Motte and Bailey Castles helped William gain control as they were strong. William's best tactic to control a country was the use of terror. Because Motte and Bailey castles were made of wood they would have only taken a few days to put up. All these castles being built around the country to keep an eye on the people was very scary. This forced everyone to do whatever the King wanted because they knew that he would order the knights to kill them if they didn't. William chose a baron for each castle who would control all the knights in that area.
