Hello People! This is my first time posting and I would really appreciate it if I got some answers ASAP cause my project is due 24 hours from now!!

Anyways, please tell me, what rooms and equipment are supposed to be in a tower? Are there any difference between the the towers in the outer wall and inner wall?!?!
Thx!!!!

This very much depends on the castle but generally in England and Wales the rooms in towers (both inner and outer) were used as lodgings for the lord of the castles's guests and leigemen. So what was in them was beds. Many also have garderobes (see Bathrooms ) either ensuite to the lodgings or in a tower of their own. The ground floor level of towers was sometimes used as just another room or sometimes as a storeroom for supplies. Such storerooms could, occassionally, double up as prisons. A very few towers do have full time prison cells in them at the ground floor level.
