Description and lore
Barriers, observation positions and a controlled opening defend one named entrance or crossing.
A defended approach concentrates attention on a particular piece of ground. The bridge, gate or road explains why the defenses stand here.
The people beyond it have something to protect. Connecting the position to a visible Utility makes its purpose clearer than an isolated line of walls.

Strongholds, Settlements and Realms · Alpha v44 reference
Requirements: One named entrance, bridge or approach; an appropriate combination of existing barriers, gates and observation positions.
Construction: Build the chosen components; retain their printed dimensions, Durability and Integrity.
Use: Protects the named approach and Utilities behind it from threats its components can intercept.
Limits: Protects this approach, not the whole trade route; open gates and established bypasses remain exposures.
The road narrows between the defenses; watch positions face the same approach.
