Usually, the horizontal slits were level, which created a cross shape, but less common was to have the slits off-set (called displaced traverse slots) as in the remains of White Castle in Wales.

多佛尔城堡 （ 英语 ：Dover Castle）是位于 英国 英格兰 肯特郡 城市 多佛尔 的一座中世纪城堡，始建于12世纪。由于多佛尔城堡在防御上有着重要意义，因此有“英格兰之钥”之称。

Due to its strategically important position overlooking the Straits of Dover and the shortest route to the Continent, the medieval royal castle at Dover developed from its presumed origins an Iron Age hillfort to become one of the most elaborate and heavily defended fortresses in Europe.

The masonry wall, or traverse, running from Fitzwilliam Gate to Penchester's Tower, is a remarkable piece of Angevin military engineering, in many ways unique in this country. It was probably designed to defend as well as to block the original entrance to Dover Castle (ie that through the ?EIA earthwork).
