Barons maintained one or more castles as military strong points. They controlled lands and forests and collected taxes to support their activities. They were subject to the King's laws as they applied to the nobility, and were required to share tax money with the King, and to come when the King called, with a substantial army to defend the King's lands and rights, or to support the King in battles elsewhere.
