Vocabulary http://quizlet.com/3025423/unit-13-the-londoners-flash-cards/

Leeds castle is in Kent in the south of England. Leeds Castle calls itself "the loveliest castle in the world". It has a maze. In the 16th century mazes were a popular entertainment. Adults as well as children would go in and get lost in the high walls for fun.
If enemies threatened the area, people from the surrounding area went inside the castle walls for protection. A moat or lake around a castle made it more difficult to attack.
