    Everyone makes big stone walls. Have you thought about doing a pallisade?
    It seems like a small place. A pallisade would be much cheaper and a much mess labor intensive project.

    Thanks for comments, Hoel.
    So here are the answers :
    As this city is seated in the center of the realms, risks of major invasion are quite low.
    At the very begining of its history, it was a place gived by the king of the realm to ensure security on the river. The first shape of the city was the castel and the quarters inside the walls.
    The lord of the city (Heward Vo Branwynn) holds taxes to every caravans crossing the bridges.
    Time passed and the region became more prosperous, so the city grew : people settle outside the walls.
    The stone walls (grey lines between the towers) are 6 meters width. I have to place the scale.
    Outer relief is used as the basement of the wooden palissade (still to draw).

    Considering your comments, It looks that the cobblestone streets were to wide (14 meters, it's very big in such a place) So, they were reduce to 7-10 meters wide streets. The map of this post shows modifications

    On the next post, I'll show you the earthed roads and the streets netting the city.
