Stone Castles

Basalt stone is typically low to moderately porous, meaning it can absorb some liquids if left untreated. The porosity of basalt can vary depending on the specific type and finish of the stone. It is recommended to seal basalt to reduce its porosity and protect it from stains.

Stone keep castles were typically made out of local stone, such as limestone or sandstone, that was readily available in the surrounding area. These stones were quarried and then used to construct the walls, towers, and keep of the castle for defensive purposes.

To use a Wilmot Castle autoclave sterilizer, ensure it is plugged in and water levels are adequate. Place items inside the autoclave, close the door securely, set the appropriate temperature and pressure, and start the sterilization cycle. Once the cycle is complete, allow the autoclave to cool before opening the door and removing the sterilized items.

Castles are typically large, fortified structures with thick stone walls, towers, and battlements. They often have a central keep or stronghold surrounded by walls and sometimes a moat. Castles can vary in architectural style depending on the time period and region in which they were built.

In 1264, Warwick Castle was a predominantly wooden structure, with a motte-and-bailey design featuring a wooden palisade and tower. It did not have the stone fortifications that it has today. The castle would have been smaller in scale compared to its later expansions and renovations.

You can find existing castles in many different countries The castles that are still standing today are all stone castles as the earlier Motte and Bailey castles are made out of wood and would have rotted down.

A stone keep refers to a castle that is built of stone. Using stone allows for castles to be build higher than with wood and also prevented against fire.

they were quite successful in protecting those inside

# 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 )

Stone Keep castles (Stone castles) are quite a few centuries old. They were built in the 11th century by King William I (William the conqueror) not long after he took over Britain after the battle of hastings. Stone castles however, weren't the first castles William built in Britain. He first built Motte and Bailey castles. The reasons for this were that they were cheap and easy to build as they were made out of wood. He decided to build Stone castles to replace many of the Motte and Bailey castles for many reasons including these: * Stone castles don't burn * Stone castles don't rot within a few years but will carry on standing for centuries to come * Stone castles were heavier, making them much stronger

lots of diferent castles are still standing now.
