Earth filled wicker camp or fort walls

[M. Demetrius]

Now, now, you Scots, there'll be no drawin' of dirks here.
:lol:

Besides, you said "wicker", he said "whicker".
Heh.
:roll: :wink:

The rectangles I saw in the illustration were put up alternately, one tall, the next short. They looked to be around 3 or 4 feet wide. and around a foot taller, if memory serves. It would do well enough for a while, as long as the berm was high enough, and the ditch wide enough to prevent an easy crossing.

But we're off the original topic, I think.
