wooden walls
Log cabin sides
Wooden walls is a historical term for warships, especially the British navy during the age of sail.
The phrase evokes the protective role of naval power—Britain's fleet serving as defensive barriers just as city walls once did: England's wooden walls kept Napoleon at bay.
The term appears mainly in historical contexts or nostalgic references to naval heritage.
