Mole's Town

Mole's Town is one of the few villages located in The Gift, the strip of land immediately south of the Wall which is under the jurisdiction of the Night's Watch, meant to supply the forces that guard the Wall. It is the closest instance of "civilization" to the Wall, populated by normal peasants and not members of the Night's Watch. It is located along the Kingsroad about half a league south of Castle Black].

Despite their oath of celibacy, members of the Night's Watch are frequently known to slip off to visit the brothel in Mole Town.

In the books
Mole's Town is much the same in the books. It is bigger than it looks, because three-quarters of the village's building-space is located below-ground for protection from the cold. The small shacks on the surface are just entrances to the living spaces below.
