Author Topic:   Castle Terminology DreamWarrior Senior Member posted 05-28-99 03:24 PM             Can anyone give me the addresses of any web sites that list basic castle terminology, possibly with graphical illustrations? I think this would be good not only for myself, but also for other aspiring castle builders. Thanks!, DW Philip Davis unregistered posted 05-28-99 04:47 PM            The glossary on Castles on the Web is fairly extensive but brief and without illustrations. (I imagine illustrating the 100 odd entries would make the page take a while to load!). By far the best castle site on the web (except for Castle Quest) is The Castles of Wales http://www.castlewales.com/home.html which does have a castle terms section http://www.castlewales.com/casterms.html which does link some terms to illustrations. PS Some terms do not have standard meanings so be careful with their use. Look at the diference between the definitions of Meurtriere in TCOWales and COTWeb!
