            The moat at Portchester Castle.

The moat inside the walls surrounds the inner bailey and associated Gatehouse (early twelfth century), and was probably constructed later than those dug by the Romans. In all cases these serve as another method of defence, which when combined with the other defences would have made the castle a more impenetrable fortress should invasion ever occur.
