Brandon Stark, also known as Brandon the Builder and Bran the Builder, was the legendary founder[1] of House Stark who is said to have lived during the Age of Heroes. According to legend, he built the Wall and Winterfell.[2] Some stories say he did it with the help of giants. Some claim Brandon also helped Durran build Storm's End when he was a boy.[3]
It is said that Bran the Builder gave the Night's Watch Brandon's Gift, a stretch of land 25 leagues wide, but some maesters argue it was another Brandon of House Stark.[4]
