AQA History - Castles

Hi - is anyone doing Castles in their GCSE History? What do you think will come up and where do I get the best resources? Love history but not sure on this subject ( or why even!)

That is why I had never heard of it. I believe it isnt just castles it is the Normans.

Yes best to revise about the Normans. They effectively created the stone castle as we know it. Motte and bailey castles etc from which most castles were derived. A huge proportion of British castles that exist today have Norman origins.
