King looks out the window
“I want that land, too. Build a wall around it!”
“But, your Majesty, we’re still building the castle.”
“This is more important!”
“Tis where I take my strolls!”
Sire, there is no foliage there..
“I am a troubled man.”
That other wall + moat was put up for defensive purposes. And it worked, because in 1266 Henry III was unsuccessful in his siege of the castle, which lasted 6 months.
