The Mountains of the Moon form the western border of the Vale, curving in an arc southeastward to make sea landings virtually impossible other than at towns with proper harbors. They have long been considered some of the greatest and most beautiful peaks in the realm and are populated by several clans of wildlings.

I think its a Clannish village."

Marq can see the village is much as described. They are still a good distance away, but from the prevalence of furs, the lack of any spun cloth, Marq was pretty sure it was a Clannish village. It had a stockcade, and a taller wooden tower which would pass as a poor knight's holdfast. There were a large number of people about.
