Two questions.
First, there is a specific word for tearing down a castle and I just can NOT remember what it is. Can anyone help me out here? I just HATE that.
Second, how would you go about doing it in the middle ages? In the Scottish War of Independence it was a regular policy as the only way to keep castles out of English hands to tear them down. But they didn't tend to do detailed descriptions of that kind of thing and I'm at a loss how you would go about it. Roxburgh Castle for one was destroyed. Any thoughts?
Thanks.
