Stone Hedge, sometimes called the Stone Hedge, is the seat of House Bracken in the Riverlands. There is a village surrounding it.

Blackwood Vale, home to the Bracken's rivals, is located across the Red Fork to the north.
House Bracken's Background: A Riverlander house known for its First Men blood, a place among the kings of the Riverlands during the Age of Heroes and its infamous blood feud with House Blackwood which has lasted for generations. According to the Brackens, the Blackwoods, who were once their vassals, betrayed their Bracken Kings and thus began the blood feud that lasted for centuries. Though they united once against the Andal Invasion, Brackens and Blackwoods remain in this great blood feud that not even the Old King, the wise Jaehaerys I, could not even mend. The Brackens and Blackwoods even clashed over who would marry Rhaenyra Targaryen, though in the end, she was given to Laenor Velaryon. Every waking day, it can be said, the Brackens plan the eventual time for when the Blackwoods can be overthrown for good.
