A separate thread for scene props ressources.
Here so far what Kolba have posted.
Drawing of South Cadbury walls
Drawing of early medieval walls
This kind of timber-laced wall is most-needed stuff as it was the basic wall of most hillforts and promontory forts by that time. It is most often set on a bank (very important) so no stairs needed. The top is made by a wooden fighting plateform with a clay or wood palissade. The front of the wall shows the timberlace structure, and is either made of timber or drystones (both versions would be needed). The overall wall is not really high in most cases but quite large.
Here a reconstruction of Alt Cluit (Dumbarton) wall, with some dimensions.
Those three drawings can make a good basis for 2 versions (at least) of timberlaced walls. One of them also show the main doors of South Cadbury fortress which would be interesting to reproduce.
