Books

Masha Heddle is the innkeeper of an inn in the Riverlands.

The inn is called The Crossroad Inn by the smallfolk and dates from the time of King Jaehaerys I. It has been run by Masha Heddle and her grandfather before her. At the time of A Game of Thrones she is a middle-aged fat woman. Upon her arrival in the inn Catelyn remembers that when she was a child Masha always had a smile and a sweet cake for the children. Catelyn loved the cake but dreaded Masha's smile because it showed her blood-red teeth caused by her continuous eating of sourleaf.[1]

When Catelyn arrested Tyrion Lannister Masha did not want to get involved and let Catelyn take him. When the Lannisters invaded the Riverlands Masha was hanged for letting Catelyn kidnap Tyrion. The inn was continued by Masha Heddle's cousin who was killed by Rorge and after that by her nieces, Willow and Jeyne.
