Village of Oak Down
Oak Down is a small village roughly a mile from the Town of Oakfield in the Shire of Oakfield. It has a population of just under 500 people, and it is a community focused on timber and charcoal production.
The village itself is protected by a stone and wood stockade wall, two gates, and a large stone tower. Carved from the surrounding hardwood forest, much of the building material is wood, and there are large garden plots and animal yards located just outside the village walls. The Sherriff of Oakfield, Liam Tully, has an office and small apartment within the tower.
