Though not strictly looking at medieval construction I thought people might find this video useful and interesting. It touches on several good design aesthetics that make cities look and feel beautiful, some of which can easily translate into the westeroscraft setting...

Thats quite alright, glad you like it. Sorry its been such a slow process, work and life mean I have to dip in and out where I can.

Hi Loras, sorry got sidetracked by work for a couple of weeks before I finished the detail on the stumps, I'm presuming that and the bushes was your handywork. Did you want anything else added/changed or are you happy with the hamlet as is?

Ah cool, cheers. Not to worry Loras, Ive been pretty quiet too, early starts at work and holidays. I shall get on with the real world building in the next couple of weeks. Thanls for pasting my test in for me.

Not a problem at all, Im more than happy to do the logging camp. Have done a quich very rough test at the top of my plot just now (too tired and ran out of time to make it more complete). 5 Houses and a wood mill. Layouts are all there and will follow the materials seen on the houses (though I...

Ive done a test at /warp sajjetta for mistham 4. No ints or windows yet, but the town layout and gradient ideas are in. 6 houses, a common store hall/trade hall, and a stable for traders horses to be put in when traders come. Let me know your thoughts. Sajj

Ignore the widths and lack of sinuosity as my iPads none to accurate, but these additions should work (other project lands allowing). I didnt draw all the small 1m feeders in that could come out of the lille gulleys in the hill as art wise I guess they need to work around your field...

Those plans look like a much better length for the width you're after. Wasnt quite sure how far your project area went when I was looking the other night. Ive got a couple of suggestions for feeders for you that Ill draw up at work tonight. Looking good :)

Its not the best image but gives a nice general idea. The Wealden valleys are fairly deep and steep sided, they would dam them with clay to create the pond and height differential, with the forge below the dam. Then run a sluce from the top of the dam to the top of the wheel (used over flow...

Got a couple of useful links to medieval pond uses in the south of England. Not sure they were promenant across the whole of Europe but ponds were definitely essential to life in Britain. Used for watering livestock thats being driven across the land, washing, soaking equipment, as fish ponds...

Found this whilst looking around at maps the other day and thought it might be useful its a generic map of a medievil manor and lands from Shepherds 1923 Historical Atlas. It shows the 'typical' rough proportions for a manor/(castle for westeros) and its surrounding land. Woodland, meadow...

#7 Waterman east side, boatmakers house, Ottys seen it. Too far away to check the coords...

Number 6, low class basket weaver for two. Next door to build number 5.

Cheers Otty, I'll check out the melons and adjust when I'm on later, and scout out another build location.

How to use this information So how can westeroscraft builders translate this all into the build? Look at the pre determined landscape, coast shape and rock type. Work out your predominant wind direction (and probably try to agree it with your coastal neighbours for continuity). These should...
