"They look like they might be breaching the north battlements, they've brought giants of their own."
Aberforth Dumbledore.[src]

There were battlements facing the north side of Hogwarts Castle.

These battlements were used by the Hogwarts defence during the Battle of Hogwarts. Aberforth Dumbledore led a small group of students into the north battlements, as the Death Eater-allied Giants were breaching their defences.[1]
