[edit] Mockridge Heights
[edit] Location
Mockridge Heights is a suburb of Malton, located towards the south of the city centre. The rolling contours of Malton rise to a particularly impressive height in this area, and from the top of St Ninian's steeple, nearly the whole city can be seen.
Looking up at Mockridge Heights from below, one can see the spiky, sloped silhouette of the Sillence Monument, designed by the psychotic, adrenachrome-addicted frontman of the infamous bloodnoize-kore band Sillence, who grew up in Mockridge and still play to packed crowds in the clubs of Malton, zombie and human alike (usually whoever buys the manager, Grizl, the most pints.)
Oddly, the bodies of thousands of dead birds, mostly migratory species like geese and swallows, litter the streets of this area, and have done since the outbreak. Nobody knows why they came here to die (perhaps maybe the avian flu mentioned on newspapers).
The main attraction in Mockridge these days is Pushing Zombies Down Steep Hills. Splat-splat-splat-splat-splat! This is why Mockridgers are nearly always the best at Zombie Skittles.

[edit] Revive points
Due to unexplained electrical interference, Necrotech recently shut down all their laboratories in this area. There are a couple of locations that are checked occasionally, a wasteland at co-ordinates 43,64, Dollen Alley at 41,62 and the local cemeteries (in line with the sacred ground policy of most survivor groups).
[edit] Barricade policy
25.8.2006: The Black Berets are sponsoring a tentative barricade plan for Mockridge Heights. It is intended to be UBP-compliant, and attempts to take existing barricade levels into account. Public commentary is requested.

- I was in Saturley just now, and it was more or less overrun, and Alphege General Hospital was the victim of a zombie attack. Just 9 humans left inside, and the barricades up at QSB with a zombie inside. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by PsychoGoose (talk • contribs) at an unknown time.
June 16th - Safe mostly, shame that it's overbarricaded in most areas. The one entry point I did see not at EHB was mocking me by being at VHB. Break down those cades. --
