Did they fire cannons at the motte and bailey castles?

Motte and bailey castles were primarily built in the 10th and 11th centuries, before the widespread use of cannons in warfare. These fortifications were designed to withstand siege tactics of the time, such as battering rams and siege towers. Cannons became prominent in military use during the late medieval period, particularly in the 14th century, which is after the peak of motte and bailey designs. Therefore, while cannons were used against castles later on, they would not have been employed against motte and bailey castles during their initial period of use.
