You see something similar in the entranceway to public bathrooms that don’t have doors, where it kind of zig-zags for privacy. I’m trying to figure out what this kind of architectural feature is called. Thanks!

    I don’t think I’ve ever seen this in a fort. Usually they would extend the wall outward and place a barbican (a fortified external gatehouse) in front of the regular gate.
