Harlaton

This village of 75 people lies at the center of a broad belt of farmsteads in the best arable land of the shire, at the foot of the Terraces . It is a sleepy village, with only one tavern/hostelry (the Pitcher and Pitchfork). Farmers trade some produce here rather than take it onwards to Milbourne, but most of the excess harvest goes to Milbourne's open-air market where it's traded for farm implements, household items, and a few luxuries. The folk here are friendly but insular. The main topic of conversation here is the growth of the New Mire, and what is happening there, and why doesn't Old Man Carman do something about it.
