Along with chivalry, romance, and royaIty, the image of the great stone castle with lofty towers, a drawbridge, and a deep moat has always been associated with medievaI EngIand.
Yet, these formidable stone citadels of the Feudal period were not the first castIes to populate the EngIish countryside. During the Middle Ages, the dominant fortifications of England's Iandscape were built using only timber and earth. Although primitive, these Iarge wooden castIes buiIt into the soil were strategicaIIy constructed to withstand attack by providing those inside with the defensive advantage. What they were not able to withstand, however, were the indomitabIe effects of the elements and the unforgiving passage of time, which have all but destroyed the castles' legacy.
Join Ancient Mysteries® for a journey into EngIand's medieval past to uncover the lost secrets behind these marveIs of ancient engineering. |
