   * **Turn Thistletop into a [[Citadel]].**    A few archers on high points can dominate the bridge, which can be 'cut' in an emergency.  Add Patrols of skirmishers to keep the forest area clear of goblins and other threats, to secure the area.
-  * **Develop [[Bramble-Warren]].**  Clear some of the Bramble-Warren to create a bramble hedged bailey, and build extra businesses with in it, the current suggestions are a Wood Working Shop and an Inn.  (<color #ed1c24>This has been started by clearing an area for horses and other 'beats of burden'</color>)

-  * **Look after the [[People]].**  There are people (NPCs) who live at Thistletop, and we want them to stay.  Without them, we don't have a holding.
+  * **Make Thistletop into a home [[People|Home]].**  There are people, including PCs, who live at Thistletop,  who we need to stay - because they are the core that allows us to develop the place. Without them, we don't have a holding.  However, it needs to feel like a home, rather than ex-gobbo lair in the middle of nowhere.
   * **Build a [[community]].**  While there are longer term plans to build a settlement alongside Thistletop, we will have a small community well before that comes into force.
 However, those are not firm objectives yet, and need to be implemented alongside each other.  An even more distant possibility, is to develop a village at the mouth of the Thistle River -  which could host the docks and perhaps a tannery -  making it suitable for a mix of fisher folk and hunter/trappers.
