Bradstowe High Cross Building / Landmark in Melior | World Anvil

Bradstowe High Cross

A large, tower-like structure at the heart of Bradstowe.

Bradstowe High Cross is located in the heart of Bradstowe, the capital city of Orlend. It marks the original center point of trade in the city and is surrounded by busy market stalls and colourful conversations.   This tall tower-like structure can be seen from many streets and vantage points in the city. Each face of the structure points to a cardinal direction down the busy streets of the Bradstowe, and is how the Highcross District came to have its name.  

The Redhilts

Amidst the chaos and destruction of The Rupture on Thirday, 10th of Darkfall 514 2A the Redhilts Gang took their chance to claim the Highcross District as their own during the bloodiest fight of Bradstowe, The Highcross Skirmish.   Trade and regular markets still continue to thrive, but now operate under strict Redhilt regulation. Law enforcement and rival gang members are welcome to shop here, but they are stripped nude before entering the market, and may only enter with their coin pouch for dignity.
