Thorngate in Salisbury does not show up in the Pendragon 5 rulebook maps, but shows up in later maps as a town or village, and part of the Thorngate hundred. Would the Count have a garrison there?

It may have been called Broughton Hundred as well (Doomesday Book name). BotW lists Thorngate Hundred as part of Count Salisbury's holdings, with 102.1L render.

Not sure if there is a town of that name within it or not, but there must certainly be a manor or several administering it, even if the income is going back to the Count for his household knights and men.

Edit: found a map, because I like the name "Thorngate" and have mentally noted it. The hundred has DuPlain Castle in it, so there's your garrison right there. Also, it has several manors mapped, both potential PK manors and others (the "wallops").
