In the "Revenge" scene where Wallace kills the Sherrif.

A moat is a body of water that circles a castle, and a drawbridge is part of the castle that lowers to allow people to cross the moat.

Your question implies that king William I only built one castle ("his castle"), which is a false assumption.

In fact his army brought pre-fabricated wooden sections for castles with them when they invaded, to fortify his landing site and its vicinity - the initial Norman earthwork castle at Pevensey (inside the Roman fort there) was built in just a few days, followed by the motte-and-bailey at Hastings using the pre-fabricated wooden sections.

Very soon after the invasion the Normans erected a string of Castles at Dover, Canterbury and Rochester (all motte-and-bailey types) to protect their line of communications with the coast, followed by castles in London and elsewhere in the south of England.

A huge number of motte and bailey castles were then constructed around the country under William's rule, most of which were later rebuilt in stone under Henry I.

All motte-and-bailey castles were erected very quickly, using local Saxon labour and the simplest of tools: spades, mattocks and baskets to move soil and clay.

William's stone royal palace in the south-east corner of London was begun around 1077, but it was not completed until around 1100 (after William's death). It is known today as the Tower of London.

Salzburg is a city in Austria and the capital of an Austrian state of the same name. Burg Hohenwerfen is a castle in Salzburg dating back to the 11th century.

Like all forms of castles built or planned in pre-modern times, a source of water was always considered to be of vital importance, especially in anticipation of sieges by enemy forces. Where well-water was not available at a given site (as it often was not), every effort was made to construct castles astride or at least near springs, rivers, or other sources of fresh water.

Dover castle was attacked by French troops that first assaulted the castle and then dug tunnels underneath it trying to get in.
