Manor:  Altarnun

The manor of Altarnun, and its associated Altarnun Village, are located in the Lesnowth Hundred and are situated south of Clethor, at the northeast edge of Bodmin Moor.  Next to Altarnun runs a river called Penpont Water.  The manor house is surrounded by plowed fields, hay meadows, sheep & cattle pastures, and other land not of much use (unless you enjoy being mired in mud).

Altarnun Village is a thriving little community of 500 people, known regionally for producing sturdy hand-woven baskets of reed from Bodmin Moor.  Altarnun now boasts a small church, a mill, and a communal bakery.

- Druce (Ever-present miller and handyman who is *not* the father of Lady Delwyn's progeny.  Definitely not.)
