Great House
House Crowhurst
Also called the Winter Stones · Crowhurst
Banners and seals
A Great House known for hard construction and early bad-weather provision, touching the upland through stores, quarrying, wall stone, winter road practice and occasional blockhouse repairs.
A Great House whose competence is endurance: winter roads, upland stores, hard construction and quarry rights. A Great House whose capital goes into reclamation where heavy construction is needed.

Ties
- often sides with the Treasury
At the table
Frequently sides with Treasury restraint until a northern road or storehouse needs money. Its quarry rights are useless where the drove will not carry carts after Michaelmas; the March has taught Crowhurst agents that endurance is local before it is financial.
