The New Wellstowne Perimeter Wall is a defensive wall built by BestTux to protect the citizens of New Wellstowne from mobs. On each side, a large gate allows passage into the city. Each cardinal direction has a color associated with it: yellow for North, red for East, blue for South, and green for West. Regional Highways (1?) and (2?) cross here.

Design and Construction

The gates are constructed of 7x5 rectangles on each side, with a portcullis across the highway. There are two wool flags on each side. The corners are round, with a diameter of 9 blocks, and a height of 14 blocks. The wall itself is 8 blocks high, with a one block wide wooden walkway. There are pine log supports every 5 blocks.

Portions of the outline for the wall were laid out with gravel, connecting the established corners of the city and providing temporary protection from enemy mobs. The gates were constructed first, with the existing structures being a second iteration. The corner structures were built next, and finally the walls.
