Editing House Frey (section)

===Origin===
House Frey dates back six centuries, making it one of the younger noble houses in Westeros. The first Lord Frey was awarded lands and a noble status, and began the construction of a great bridge spanning the [[Green Fork]] of the [[Trident]]. Construction was finished under the rule of his grandson, who added wooden keeps on both sides of the river. The timber keeps were eventually replaced by stone keeps, which received the name "the Twins".{{ref|AGOT|59}}{{ref|TWOIAF| The Riverlands: House Tully}}

Due to their strategic location, House Frey prospered by exacting tolls for passage across the river, greatly increasing their wealth. House Frey has grown into the most powerful bannermen of [[House Tully]] of [[Riverrun]],{{ref|ASOS|35}} and the Twins are among the strongest castles of the [[Seven Kingdoms]].{{ref|TWOIAF| The Riverlands: House Tully}} However, some older houses look down upon the Freys as upstarts{{ref|ASOS|14}} and toll collectors.{{ref|TMK}}

Warriors from House Frey tried and failed to conquer [[Greywater Watch]] in the [[Neck]].{{Ref|ASOS|24}}
