More information is needed as to what it would be used for, as in weight it will support,size,height, (design: choir or single person) Are you looking for something that looks like a Pulpit, a music stand or a multi-tier Choir podium.

It really depends on what you're asking.

When in check, the only legal moves are moves that would serve to get you out of check.

If capturing the rook with your pawn would mean your king was no longer in check, then yes, the rook may be taken. If capturing the rook with your pawn would mean that your king would be in check by another piece, then no, the rook may not be taken.

it is whatever you think it is

it was built so that when there was a war, people could be protected and that the eneimes could not reach or climb up them.

# They don't burn easily # They don't rot easily # They are big # They are strong # The walls are a few meters thick # Stone is heavy, therefore not enabling attackers to dislodge big pieces in order to break in # People could climb the motte or palisade and jump the ditch. # A Motte and bailey castle is smaller ( too small for kings and queens ) # A Motte and bailey castle is built on a big mound of ground ( take up space ) # Jump in the motte and bailey ditch ( attackers get in without hurting themselves )

a dried up one

lots of diferent castles are still standing now.

It depends on which "mote" you are referring to. I am assuming you are meaning "mote" as in "castle mote" so the rest of this definition applies to that assumption. Typically speaking, mote is the proper word to use to reference this man-made trench. A mote is a specific type of well, or trench dug out typically surrounding an edifice. Many times the type of edifice is applied to the description: one of the more common ones being "castle mote." But motes don't have to surround castles, they can surround entire cities, a house, or even pieces of land. They also don't have to be circular, nor do they have to surround the edifice or piece of land entirely. Motes are a specific type of man-made trenches; so a synonym would be "trench." But not all trenches are motes. Another synonym would be "ditch", but yet again, not all ditches are motes. The alternative spelling is "moat." Note: this is the proper alternative spelling for the word "mote" when referencing the man-made trench; it is not an alternative spelling for the word "mote" with the other definitions mentioned below. Moat is also a verb, meaning both "to fortify" and "to surround." Note: Mote also means "speck", "tiny particle", "flicker." Another definition is "meeting lodge" or "meeting place." It is also used as a verb meaning "may" or "might" as in the expression "so mote it be." "Mote" as used in the KJV of the Bible refers to a speck of dirt (i.e. particle of dust.)

Yes search zubbo3@hotmail.co.uk and I will send you one!

i have no idea what the answer is because i was asking it myself

I am not sure how much but they would have been paid in pennies which is 4 pennies to £1 I believe

I would suggest around 1,000 pennies when they were made out of wood and around 2,000 pennies when they were made out of stone

you will also need to take into consideration how many acres of land the castle you are talking about THey would be between 1-3 acres so obviously the bigger the castle the more expensive

motte and bailey castles is called 'motte and bailey castles' because the motte is another word for the hill on which is the keep and the bailey is where all the people live in an area encircled by wooden posts which joins up to the hill

The meaning of Bailey is berry clearings.

Other spellings include - Baylee, Bailee, Bayley, Baily, Baley, Baylei, and Bailei.

The many weapons used to attack castles were: Danish Battle axe, Bow and arrow, Stones, Catapult, Trebuchet, Cannons.

There were several defensive measures in ancient castles. Some were standard to any castle, but others were more unique.

The most obvious of these is probably to have people stand on the walls and throw things at attackers. And by things, I mean pretty much anything they could get their hands on that might hurt someone it landed on and was not already being used to fortify the gate: arrows, javelins, rocks, pots, spare metals, a chunk of of the wall that had been knocked off, etc. Sometimes they would use things like heated oil or tar if they had it available to burn attackers or try to set battering rams on fire (with the aid of a flaming arrow or some other incendiary). Other heated materials were also used in castle defense, such as boiling water or hot sand or animal fat. These heated materials could be very effective, sometimes even more so than things like rocks because while a smallish rock might just bounce off an enemy's armor, the hot sand or boiling water can sneak in through small cracks and cause severe burns. Some castles had arrow holes built into the wall, from where archers could shoot or other people could throw whatever they had on hand or pour hot materials onto passing attackers. The trick was making these arrow holes big enough to shoot from and placing them in locations they could be effective but still enabling them to afford some protection to the person using it. For example some castles had intricate gates where the actual gate was built at a point inward from the perimeter of the wall and the walls on either side of this alley leading to the gate would house arrow holes that were at angles somewhat harder to hit from outside the castle, but the defenders inside could use them to shoot at attackers entering the alley. These arrow holes also sometimes had protective wooden covers the defender could push out of the way while shooting (i.e. with his shoulder) and then the cover would fall back into place when the defender retreated back into the wall. Many castles also had towers built into them from which defenders could fire projectiles, often with arrow holes all over them. Some castles also had defensive catapults or ballistas (giant mechanical crossbows) within them, so while the enemy catapults shot stuff into the castles, the defenders would try to shoot them back. (They usually had their own ammunition stockpiles, at least at the start of a siege, but when that runs low you start looking around for anything else you can use. And if an enemy catapult projectile hit a stone building or part of a wall and turned it into rubble, that too becomes ammunition). There we also some incidents of "biological warfare". Although these were usually reports of besieging armies using catapults to hurl corpses into a castle or city hoping to cause an outbreak of disease, the defenders in castles that had catapults of their own could load them with these same corpses or simply the corpses of fallen defenders and hurl them back onto the enemy army.

All of this would take place for as long as the castle was under siege and there were still enemies to shoot stuff at and the defenders had any ammunition left and it was "safe" to get to these defensive positions, or indeed if the person in that position got stuck there because the enemy had cut off his ability to retreat to a more "safe" location. Safe is of course a very relative word when you are talking about warfare, and during a siege there really was no completely safe place if the castle was breached, or really even before then because some catapult's projectile or enemy arrow might still find you. Although some castles did have access to underground tunnels or similar very secure places where the defenders might hide women and children and/or VIPs such as royalty during a siege, but some had no such secure places and while those would most likely be safe during the siege, once the outer defenses were breached it was usually only a matter of time before these places were breached as well.

Once the walls (or the gate) were breached and the enemy began flooding into the castle itself, it was time for the front linesmen to take up swords or spears or whatever weapon you could find and meet the enemy head on. Any archers still alive could still fire at the attackers within the walls too, of course.

Of course, that's all assuming whoever was in command of the castle did not surrender once the outer perimeter of the castle was breached or at some point before that (assuming any surrender given was actually accepted and the attack stopped). Sometimes castles were surrendered just at the sight of an enemy army on the horizon, other times the siege raged until every defender (or any other occupant) was killed. It was sometimes not just the knights who fought. Often times these sieges, for whatever reason they may have started, became a pure battle of survival and any occupant in the castle, whether noble or peasant, would be forced to try to defend his or her life to the best of his or her ability.

Skipton was close to where the Welsh and Scottish borders of the time met England's northern marches. Skipton was probably made to defend the area from raids by both of these as well as keep the local populace in line.

The Motte and Bailey castle was built by the Normans and was a frequent sight in the Middle Ages. They were built with either a wood or stone base. The rooms included in them were dependent on how wealthy the owner was. They included the great hall, Lords and Ladies chamber, servants room, wardrobe, bower, solar, and minstrel's gallery.
