The Crossing, is the name given to the fortified river crossing of House Frey. located within the Riverlands. It consists of a stone bridge wide enough for two wagons to cross abreast and guarded by a tower in the middle known as the Water Tower. It is the only crossing point over the Green Fork for hundreds of miles in either direction, from the North to the western Riverlands. It lies directly athwart the main route from Winterfell to Riverrun.
The Crossing has been the seat of House Frey for over six hundred years and they have grown wealthy by charging a heavy toll on all those who need to cross, as the only place to do so within several days travel.
