Tighsley

Tighsley is a district in southern Norrilund, located on the west bank of the Saron River between Hutton and Oakes. The vast majority of the urban construction in the district is located between Crowmount and the Tighsley Marsh, a vast bottomland of mud and reeds on the riverbank. The district is centered around Outer Halding Road, a broad and very busy road leading from central Norrilund to the towns and villages along the west bank of the river south of town.
The area, like Hutton, is nearly exclusive to working and poorer middle-class, and is heavily populated by immigrants from all over the world. Tighsley is also known for its many political dissidents and anarchists. The better-off live mostly along the high streets like Outer Halding Road and Crowfoot Road in homes that are fairly new and larger than their cousins in Hutton. The poor live in tenements, many of them recently thrown up without regard to building codes; most of these tenements are split along ethnic lines: one set of rookeries might be exclusive to the Ust, another to Dalkhrovans. The area is highly
industrial, with massive industries lining the streets along the edge of the marsh.
Neighborhoods in Tighsley include Bear Sump, to the north of the massive Butchers Yard at the center of the district; and Bear Wedge to its south.
