Abstract:		 For the purposes of this article, we may define the medieval castle as the private fortress or residence of a lord, whether a king or baron. It was this private character which distinguished it both from its predecessor, the Saxon fortified place or burh which was larger and communal, and also from its successor, the purely military fortress of modern times. In many instances it also served as the administrative centre and garrison of royal or baronial lands.
