Ampleforth

The town/city grew up around the confluence of two rivers. The city is near a region ideal for mining clay and granite deposits, iron ore and growing potatoes and leeks. The town is known for its wine and ale. The town is ruled by a council of elected officials.
In the past, the town experienced a deadly plague. The people of the town are fearful of bandits and outlaws (while the leaders fear pirates, smugglers and bands of thieves). The town is guarded by a gigantic golem (and a magical ward?). And the laws are enforced by a corrupt, roguish city watch. Within or outside the government the power is held by a secret society of lorekeepers.
