 New Shepford is located West of [[abbots_town|Grey’s Abbey]], the farthest settlement of the Earl’s West Hundred. It includes a small order of monks who scrape out a living farming and herding goats. The next closest settlement is Thomas’ Village which is over twelve miles to the East of New Shepford.
-New Shepford is the site of a lot of open space, appropriate for herding sheep. There is a thick tributary of the Rapid Creek running along the Western border of the settlement good for watering livestock. Locals call this southern tributary just “South Creek.” An ancient, overgrown forest along this tributary is a source of concern, but the flat areas to the West along the tributary make for good pasture and farmland.

-Over the past five years, there has been talk of the settlement being cursed and the population of this seed of a new hundred began to dwindle as the [[gladfelter|Gladfelter family]] rapidly lost wealth and fell into poverty.
+Over the past five years, there has been talk of the settlement being cursed and the population of this seed of a new hundred began to dwindle as the [[gladfelter|Gladfelter family]] rapidly lost wealth and fell into poverty. The ruins of the old Shepford settlement still stands across the [[rapid creek|South Creek]].  The village is made up of about twenty families. Another ten homesteads lay unused in the village, and there are more slowly falling into ruin across the creek.
+Near the forest to the Northeast away from the village is a cemetery thick with those settlers who died much too early.
 This settlement would be located where New Oxford is in our world.
