In the 1700s, castles were typically built using stone and brick, materials that are inherently more fire-resistant than wood. To further enhance fireproofing, builders employed techniques such as using slate roofs, stone chimneys, and firebreaks—areas devoid of flammable materials. Additionally, the interiors were often designed to minimize the risk of fire, with less use of wood and the inclusion of stone or brick fireplaces. Regular maintenance and inspections also played a role in preventing fires from spreading.
