Mornbridge

Mornbridge is a town and civil parish in the fictional county of Northmere, in the country of Eldoria. It lies on the eastern bank of the River Lune, with rolling farmland surrounding it.

The settlement began as a medieval market crossing and grew through the trades of the early modern period. It developed textile mills in the 18th and 19th centuries, later transitioning to light industry and services.

Today the economy centers on light manufacturing, logistics, and local services, supported by a weekly market and small-scale tourism focused on historic sites.

Mornbridge is governed by a town council and is part of the Northmere District. It falls within the Eldoria regional assembly for broader matters.

As of 2021, the population was approximately 9,600, with a median age in the mid-40s and a mix of families and older residents.

Notable sites include the ruins of Mornbridge Castle, a hilltop fortress dating to the 13th century, and St. Mary's Church, a Gothic revival building.

The town is connected by the A960 road and has a railway station on the Northmere Line, with regular services to surrounding towns and the regional capital. Local bus routes link residential areas with the town center.

Mornbridge maintains a community character with several voluntary organizations, a public library, and annual events such as a summer market and a winter lights festival. The town serves as a local service node for nearby villages while preserving a compact, walkable town center.
