Explanation / Brief History: This town is located in eastern England since the early 1800s, most residence work at the factory where they spend most of their day making wool, its a very fast pace job.

Then after a long day they had back too their complex which is where almost all of their wage goes too, the rest goes too the little amount of food they can get near the complex.
