Drovers' Field

Drovers' Field was a walled and gated pastured in the town of Mosstone reserved for steeds and beasts of burden of the caravans that moved up and down the Trade Way.

Location
Drovers' Field was strategically nestled in the north-eastern corner of Mosstone's city walls. Its position was selected so that constant sea wind carried the smell of beasts and manure away from the town. The enclosure was walled and guarded nightly, to protect caravans' oxen from wolves and other hungry predators of the Forest of Tethir.

Drovers' Field stood just outside city gates on Rimmon's Lane. Not far on the same street stood a quick stop-tavern named the Drover's Last Drink]. It was a long old building lacking its front wall, keeping the place easily accessible to caravaners waiting for their beasts to be retrieved and ready for travel.
