Withering Heights (Formerly known as The British Empire, Name Pending and occasionally Withered Heights) was a town founded on the very first day of the 1.16 Minecraft server on 13/02/2021. It was founded by a group of 5 people who after absolutely obliterating a swamp in the search for resources eventually settled on a mob riddled mountain as their new home.

HISTORY
Founded on the first day of the Minecraft server initially as "The British Empire" but then rebranded due to not wanting to sound entirely evil, Withering Heights initially began in a swamp not far from the 1.16 Spawn before the 5 founding members moved on and discovered an extremely complex and possibly hollow mountain range. Upon settling here the members found it completely infested with mobs which made getting a working nightlife rather awkward. Upon assessment of the towns generally spooky nature, the residents have now decided to embrace the spooky slightly odd air of the town. This includes a recreation of the overlook hotel from the shining and a general withering design to the towns tunnels to really sell the "Why did I come here" vibe. The town now features several homes, a wall, a viaduct and a Windmill as well as being the home of the servers first sheep admiral. Additionally the town is looking to brand itself as a holiday destination with several attractions in the works including hotels and a potential theme park.
Rules
- Always ask before setting land aside before Building, just double checking with any neighbours or other members of the town will suffice
- Try to minimize your impact on the overall landscape, try and work with it rather than terraforming it
- Please try and ensure your homes are well lit to avoid the copious amounts of Monster spawns being made even worse
- No more than 20 villagers for the entire town
