Mole's Town
From A Wiki of Ice and Fire
Mole's Town is a village close to Castle Black. It lies along the Kingsroad, half a league south of the Wall.[1] It is said that Brothers of the Night's Watch go to Mole's Town to dig for "buried treasure."[2]
Mole's Town is bigger than it seems. Three-quarters of the town lies beneath ground in deep damp warm cellars connected by a warren of tunnels. The whorehouse is located in the cellars, it being nothing more than a shack on the surface. It has a red lantern that is hung over the door.[2]
