Barrowton
From A Wiki of Ice and Fire
Barrowton is the seat of House Dustin. It lies north of the Saltspear, in the Barrowlands.[1] According to a semi-canon source, there may be a cadet branch of Starks in the town.[2] Brandon Stark was fostered in Barrowton as a youth.[3]
Barrowton is centered around the large hill Great Barrow, on which was built the Dustins' castle, Barrow Hall.[4] The town itself is wooden and has broad streets. House Stout of Goldgrass has a keep near the eastern gate of Barrowton.[5]
