'''Lamport Hills''' is a [[suburb]] of [[Malton]] on the border of the high Moorlands located in the northern section of the city. 
Lamport Hills contains the eastern half of the [[Southall Mansion]], and its people call themselves [[Lamportians]], most of them working class or lower middle class.  Before the quarantine, Lamport had a small population and was a very rural area with small farms.  Additionally, it sported various hunting lodges at the edge of the mountains.  Later, the suburb developed with the times, but still keeps elements of its tradition with old pubs, schools, and some ancient houses.  Lamportians try to keep to Lamport traditions by only venturing into other suburbs for uncommon items. Lamport Hills also has a history of internal conflict, both ethnic and class related. Further more, Lamport Hills is used to sending it's youth to wage war overseas.

Here lies a brief time line of major events that have happened in Lamport Hills before the infection started. Please feel free to add to this time line, as it gives Lamport Hills a feel of realism. The title link is a full timeline.
 
'''1909'''- Lamport Hills is formed as a suburb of Malton. As a mostly rural community, they begin low level mine excavations and set up mills for fabric production.
 
'''1912'''- The [[Great Fire of 1912]] burns through the suburb, badly damaging the area and causing a gain in popularity of religion, especially [[Christianity]].
