Heilryke

Heilryke is the name given to the unofficial town created by BennyGolden after the release of the 1.7 Survival World. Despite never being recognized, it's considered the first "township" on this world. It lasted from early December 2013 until November 2, 2014. Its coordinates are 150, 63, 105.

Establishment
Formerly located across the river beside Spawn's West Gate, player BennyGolden established his town within the first week of the world's inception, barely over 100 blocks away and directly on the border of the protected land. The town featured a 3-6 (in some locations) block high cobblestone wall enclosing seven to eight homes of different styles and an incomplete cobble fortress. Small, fenced-in gravel roads connected the homes and other parts of the town.

The town at its peak early into the Spring 2014, the population reached roughly 5-8 citizens with the stated above amount of builds. The town was never officially recognized.

Fate
Due to its closeness to Spawn, it fell victim to endless waves of griefers. From the walls to the builds and roads themselves, the town was torn apart. This was further enhanced as BennyGolden and other members either became inactive or moved on. For roughly eight months after the Spring peak, the town was reduced to a griefers' paradise.

On November 2, 2014 Supermod GamerGuppy officially removed the town and rolled back the land to its natural state. Currently nothing remains of the town and newer players have claimed the land and created several builds.
