Village of Newgrange

With a population numbering nearly five thousand, Newgrange is a thriving river town with a democratically elected mayor and Druid sheriff, fertile farmland and abundant fishing make this town an important center of economic activity. The thriving commerce enables Newgrange to support a number of businesses and guilds. There are also schools and temples, as well as a number of inns and taverns.

Newgrange is also known for its local regiment of the Army of Midhe. A fierce group of river-borne warriors known as the River Rats train here, and the White Mount Regulars are known for their fearlessness and ferocity. The army complex occupies a large section in the center of the village. This complex is also the home of the purchasing and procurement center of the king’s army, making the military an important aspect of the Newgrange economy.

Farming has long been central to the local economy. The town itself hugs the river and would be vulnerable to yearly flooding were it not for the canals, which carry rich water to the inland farms. Newgrange County is one of the largest shires in Midhe, and most of it is farmland. Crops grown in Newgrange travel throughout the kingdom, carried by Newgrange boats up and down the River Boyne.
