Editing House Botley

'''House Botley of Lordsport''' is a noble house from the [[Iron Islands]]. Their seat of Lordsport is located at the island of Pyke, at the opposite side of the Greyjoy's keep.
The stronghold of the Botleus had been a great structure of timber and wattle, but when Robert Baratheon put down the Greyjoy's Rebellion razed the structure to the ground. Asmal square keep of stone was built afterwards.

Their blazon is a shoal of silver fish on pale green. Their words do not appear in the books.
