Stevensid

Stevensid is a fictional town and civil parish in the country of Westmere, within the Northvale region. It lies near the Silverbridge River and is surrounded by farmland and woodland.

Its origins trace to a medieval manor once owned by the Stevens family, around which a village developed. The name is commonly linked to a local family name and an Old English element meaning seat or place.

Covering about 12 square kilometers, the landscape is gently rolling, with arable fields, hedgerows, and several small streams. The economy combines agriculture, light manufacturing, and service industries, with dairy farming and fruit orchards playing prominent roles.

Stevensid is governed by a town council elected by residents. It lies within the Northvale district and forms the Stevensid electoral ward, which sends representatives to the district council.

Education includes Stevensid Primary School and Stevensid Secondary College, complemented by a public library and a community center. The town hosts an annual Stevensid Festival featuring local crafts, music, and food stalls.

Transport connections include local bus services and road links to the regional network, including the A101 and B42 corridors. The nearest rail link is in the neighboring town of Brookford, about 10 kilometers away.

Notable fictional residents include the novelist Mara Calder and engineer Jahan Ito, who are cited in local histories.
