Redwall Abbey

Redwall Abbey is the centerpiece of the books. If you don't know what it looks like, picture this: There are high, battlemented walls made of red sandstone surrounding the whole structure. There is a large oaken door in the center of the wall in the front of the abbey with a small gatehouse behind it. There are small, wicket gates on each of the other outer wall. Inside, there is a large pond with fish swimming in it. There is an orchard, a salad garden, and green lawns surrounding the abbey building. The building has one large door in the front. Inside, there is Great Hall, which is the largest room in the abbey. There are seven steps leading down from Great Hall into Cavern Hole, which is smaller and more cozy. There are also the kitchens. There is a wine cellar below the building where the keep all the cold beers, wines, cordials, and fizzes. On the second level there are the dormitories, the sickbay, and guest rooms and of the like. Next are the attics. First comes the larger, first attic, and second comes the smaller, second attic. There are only the upper attics and the roof that are higher. To the side of the abbey is a tall bell tower. It contains The twin Matthias and Methuselah bells, made from the split Joseph bell. Remember, you are always welcome there.
