settlement, which was a public defence – though there are many similarities among these types of construction. Usage of the term has varied over time and
has been applied to structures as diverse as hill forts and country houses. Over the approximately 900 years that castles were built they took on a great many
forms with many different features, although some, such as curtain walls and arrowslits, were commonplace. Wikipedia, 2013
A large building, typically of the medieval period, fortified against attack with thick walls, battlements, towers, and often a moat: Edinburgh Castle the crumbling
stonework of a ruined castle; a magnificent and imposing old mansion: [in names]:Castle Howard; Chess, informal old-fashioned term for rook. Oxford
