Bricole
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bricole (a French word coming from italien briccola, coming from high German brëchel), may refer to:
- a military engine for casting heavy stones to destroy the walls of a fortress, also called trebuchet, with split counterweight
- also a term in tennis for a side-stroke rebounding off the wall of the court, corrupted into "brick-wall" from a supposed reference to the wall, and in billiards for a stroke off the cushion to make a cannon or hazard.
