What were the occupants of a castle?

Pennard Castle has a very steep hill to the east side. It may have been built there for that reason. It was a good advantage point if anyone decided to attack. If the attackers came up from that side, the knights defending the castle would be able to kill them easily before the reached the top. However if the attackers did weren't killed, they would soon tire due to all the climbing and would therefore be much easier to kill than other attackers. Also the location is on high ground so they could see for miles in every direction so Pennard Castle would be alerted to an attack long before it came. Pennard Castle has an amazing view fit for any lord owning the castle and the landscape is beautiful and peaceful. However, although it had many advntages, Pennard Castle was eventually abandond due to sandstorm. Sandstorms occured quite often due to very strong winds and the beaches right next ot the castle.

I guess you mean "parapet", which is an English word derived from Italian para, guard and petta, the chest. A parapet is the thinner wooden or stone wall which protects soldiers on top of the wall-walk along the top of a castle or fort wall. In later times the term parados referred to a second thin wall at the back of this wall-walk, protecting the soldier's backs.
Castle prapets are usually crenelated (or castellated), having battlements with spaces between for soldiers to shoot bows or crossbows.
In a trench system the parapet is often composed of earth and sandbags forming a low bank along the front top edge of the trench.
