Sharp Point is the seat of House Bar Emmon in the crownlands. The castle is located along the Gullet at the northern end of Massey's Hook, north of Stonedance.[1] It has a large watchtower upon which a great fire burns atop.[2]

History

Sharp Point was founded during the Andal invasion by the warlord Togarion Bar Emmon, who established a new kingdom on Massey's Hook. The peninsula was eventually recovered by the Storm Kings of House Durrandon, however, and included within the stormlands.[3]

Although sworn to King Argilac the Arrogant of Storm's End, Lord Bar Emmon had stronger ties to Lord Aegon Targaryen of Dragonstone, and the Bar Emmons supported the Targaryens during Aegon's War of Conquest.[4] The castle became part of the newly-created crownlands owing allegiance to Dragonstone.
