Roads

West road. Leaves town to the north past Ravenford Keep, crosses the Berribrun on a small bridge just above the fork, then runs north-west along the West Raven past Dwimmer Forest toward the Bendenwoods. Travellers from the west come into Ravenford this way.

South road (Old Knight’s Road). Runs from town past Kelvan Woods and up to Kelvan Pass, then south through the hills along the Dead Forest, with Stone Hill just west of the road. Beyond the forest it turns west, off the map, toward Vermoorden.

Track to Stone Hill. A rough track leaves the south road to the ruined keep on top of Stone Hill.

For the town itself — keep, temple, inn and shops — see the numbered town map on Ravenford.
