The Norman Watchtower is typical of the type of local defensive structures the Normans built throughout their lands in France and England during the 11th Century. Though not as large and powerful as a full-fledged castle, these small towers were capable of supporting a modest garrison for the purpose of dealing with local bandits or even small groups of seafaring raiders from Scandinavia or Frisia. They were also the center of law and order among the local peasantry.
