Shell keep castles are round rather than boxed. A castle that forms a circle is a perfect example. There are many in England.

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
To keep the Welsh out!
there were 4,689 bulit
Yes, there are many different types of castles. There are motte and bailey castles, concentric castles and stone keep castles. They were built all over England by King William in the 11th and 12th century.
There are many Stone Keep castles. These include: * Warwick Castle * Windsor Castle * Lincoln Castle * Nottingham Castle * Anlwick Castle
Stone or square keep castles were first built in Medieval England by William the Conqueror. Stone keep castles were the natural extension of motte and bailey castles. Motte and bailey castles were only temporary features (though many mottes exist to the day) while stone keep castles were built to last
the problem with these type of castles was that there were many windows
Most large towns and cities had a castle , examples are londonium , exeter , ect. I am not sure how many.
Concentric castles were the next follow on from stone keep castles. Concentric castles, in Britain, are most associated with Edward I and North-West Wales where a series of huge castles were built. The most famous concentric castles are at Harlech, Beaumaris, Caernarvon and Conway. Unlike square keep castles, concentric castles had no central keep. In many senses, they had no centre either as all parts of the castle would have been considered to be a strong point. Each concentric castle had a very heavily defended entrance and the central core was defended by a series of curtain walls. The furthest of the curtain walls would have been the smallest in height to allow the defenders to see an approaching enemy. The curtain wall nearest to the castle would have been the highest to give the defenders the maximum height advantage over those attempting to take over the castle. JAJAJA
shell keep castles dont have that high or thick walls so look for the nearest higher grouns and fire a rock using catipult try aiming more to the middle. then start destroying as many walls as you can. then CHARGE chaargee baby caakeessszz!!!
