In the Middle Ages, a bailey referred to the enclosed courtyard or outer area of a castle, typically surrounded by a defensive wall or ditch. It served various functions, including housing troops, livestock, and storage for supplies. The bailey was also a gathering place for the local community and played a crucial role in the castle's defense during sieges. Additionally, it often contained important structures such as stables, workshops, and living quarters for attendants and soldiers.
