Suburb under heavy attack by Zombie hordes. It will probably be ruined by tommorow. All resource buildings infested with at least twenty or so outside. A few large groups of survivors are attempting to hold out in St. Maurice and the adjacent buidings, but zombies far outnumber them and there will be a slaughter if they do not evacuate. This suburb needs to be upgraded to very dangerous.

Most of the buildings are well barricaded and lit. Only one building damaged though : Waggott Cinema. All NTs are being held by survivors and Revive Points are cleared (except the Greatorex Building). No more than 10 standing zombies and no more than 30 dead/revivifying bodies. Only stragglers, no organised groups. --Kwunlei 17:16, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Houldenbank is still a complete ruin. There are zombies everywhere, and no survivors in sight. Many of the ruins are being searched or occupied by zombies. It's an incredibly dangerous suburb for survivors. Refugees looking for shelter should just keep moving. --Jenkem 23:47, 4 October 2010 (BST)

Briefly safe, but as a result is now picking up some heat from neighbouring suburbs. Frequent, targeted raids on key buildings. At this stage it's a question of who will reinforce the area fastest. Informant 00:32, 21 October 2009 (BST)

George Zip here, ex-military scout for DSS Red Zone Support. Charted a course from St. Elisabeth's in Pegton SSW to the Rothwell building in Penny Heights. I have seven FAK kits and plenty of firepower. Highlights of trip are as follows:
- Pegton
- St. Elisabeth's Hospital at EHB with survivors and power (but no radio). Had to leave through St. Martin's church. Eleven zeds in nearby cemetary, presumably waiting for revives. James O'Ferrel, NecroTech operative, also there.
- SW Pegton otherwise virtually free of zeds
- Holdenbank
- NW Holdenbank virtually free of zeds.
- Trent Bank at EHB.
- Pettyfer Towers at EHB with power. 3 zeds outside.
- St. Willibrord's Church HB, with power. Interesting graffito: "The time of the Demon Walrus is Nigh"
- Piney Building at EHB, with power.
- Hemmings Auto Repair at EHB, no power.
- Mace Towers SB, with power. Four bodies outside.
- St. Maurice's Hospital at EHB, with power
- Lower and central Houldenbank empty of zeds.
- Penny Heights
- One zed at St. Danillo's Church, then joined by another. Shot at them. Was attacked; left.
- Gradually incresing zed presence as I go south
- Rothwell Building: Doors open, no power. One zed outside; seven (and one survivor!) inside. I can't stay here with so many zeds.
- Tomkyns Building: Power; one survivor. QSB.

Moments ago, the last five structures left in town were ruined. Corpses litter the streets and buildings. All TRPs were taken down. MOB and the FU then decided to finish off all of the non-TRP structures. Even the junkyards were opened up and the occupants killed. It will take some time to clean up this mess. These zombies are massing on the western edge of the suburb, eying greener pastures.--FLZombie 04:31, 23 October 2008 (BST)
October 22nd
Local NT operations have become seriously hampered with the presence of zombies from the Militant Order of Barhah and the Feral Undead. All four NTs are ruined at this time, as well as the three hospitals, and the only Police Department. Those waiting at RPs will have to be patient, since even non TRP buildings are being targeted, and these still hold survivors capable of reviving zombies inside. --FLZombie 12:32, 22 October 2008 (BST)

Moderate amounts of zombie activity in houldenbank, mainly in the south. A few safehouses have fallen, but not many. The revive points a COMPLETELY clogged up, I tried to get one of my alt's revived and havebben waiting for a week now! The zobies in Greatotex are getting really annoyed... and I'm one of them! --Angusburger 17:42, 20 October 2008 (BST)
It's also aggravating to see zombies attack the rot revivers. I had just been revived, and was about to help revive some people, when a friendly zombie decided it was a great idea to kill me. Now I have to find a cemetery or revive point elsewhere.--Spacedooky 04:48, 21 October 2008 (BST)

I passed through the center of suburb, from the the Wrigley Building to Wharam Towers. Out of the twenty-five buildings I saw, only six were ruined, and most repaired buildings had heavy barricades. There's many scattered zombies in the city, but most are in groups of two or three. The largest group was 22 zombies outside the the Owsley Building (which had low cades, but was repaired). Assuming that the rest of the suburb looks somewhat the same -- mostly unruined, with no hordes anywhere near 150 -- I would think Houldenbank is at most "Dangerous." --Jen 03:34, 5 June 2008 (BST)

The Hosken Building and The Greatorex Building are operating as a rotter revive clinic for all zombies including those with brain rot. Both The Hosken Building and The Greatorex Building are powered and are well defended and maintained and since they are adjacent to one another, it is advised that the Greatorex building is kept unbarricaded to let the zeds with brain rot into the clinic where they can be revived. ----Tanaj----

Almost all of the resource buildings in the suburb are powered, and they all have their barricades raised. While there are a few scattered small groups, most of the zombies in the suburb have gathered outside the doors of the Owsley Building. --The Masked Lurker 03:56, 28 April 2008 (BST)

Currently inside the Tribe Building; it seems as though it and the Wellstead Building next door are getting some attention recently. Zombie numbers are fairly low, but so are the defenders, so a few extra warm-bodied volunteers would be helpful if anyone's in the area and looking for something to do. --Specialist290 ♠♥♣♦ 20:48, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

NecroWatch reported from the Greatorex, Hosken, and Owsley Buildings revealing that there were 29 zombies within scanning range (calculated after scan overlays). Of note, there were 7 zombies at Richard General Hospital, 6 zombies at Wharam Towers, and 5 zombies at the Tribe Building. The remaining zombies were scattered and should be little or no threat to any well-defended survivor safehouses in the immediate area. --Mobius187 14:38, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Many buildings in east and central Houldenbank appear to be barricaded and lit, including at least 3 NTs and the PD. This area is improving as more zombies straggle behind the Big Bash and head north. --DaytonDead 06:16, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
In other news, NecroWatch reported scans from the Greatorex, Hosken and Owsley Buildings today. The scans revealed that there are an estimated 50+ zombies within range of the NecroTech facilities. The largest concentrations of zombies appear to be at Solomon Lane PD, which has 15 zombies, and is a stark comparison to the Frappell Motel and Vallis Plaza Fire Station, which only have 4 zombies at each. The remaining zombies are scattered throughout the area in far fewer numbers. --Mobius187 17:00, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

The struggle between the survivors and the zombies continues to rage long after the Second Big Bash has left the nearby suburbs. Control of the four Necrotech Buildings and other tactical resource buildings switch back and forth between the opposing forces. --The Masked Lurker 22:24, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Update the suburb to Very Dangerous. Half the buildings are ransacked. We're trying our hardest to take back the suburb, but it's going to be hard with all these zombies around.--DerangedFerret 03:27, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Allright everybody, we need to evacuate. Let's make it as orderly as possible, but we all need to get the HELL out of dodge. The second Big Bash is headed this way, and it may get here in the next 2-3 days. Remember, use river tactics and they WILL go away.--DerangedFerret 04:08, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Looks like Houldenbank is pretty ravaged. All NTs are ruined, and I've only seen a few buildings that are powered. Upping this suburb to Dangerous. --Druuuuu Ocular 02:24, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

The Greatorex building is a rotters relief point, therefore it should be like that. As for the rest of the suburb, there are sporatic break ins at the resource points but they are quickly fixed. The revive points are running smoothly as well.--Srg Shawn 21:25, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Whoever posted at November 9 was merely spreading rumours. There has been a continual survivor presence in Houldenbank and there always will be. ESPECIALLY IN THE BUILDINGS AROUND A REVIVE POINT! Anyway, Houldenbank is now YELLOW status. All buildings are secured, and most are powered. However, we do have occasional break-ins. Someone please update to yellow status.--DerangedFerret 23:27, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

I agree with the below. If you're new, stay the hell away. Houldenbank is currently in ORANGE status. Could someone please change it? There are only a few ruined buildings in the suburb, but the PD is under seige, and two of the NTs are down.--DerangedFerret 01:06, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
Agreed, there are almost a hundred zombies in the suburb, but they are not working together and many resource buildings are not ruined. Danger status changed.--Srg Shawn 03:22, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

I would like to rebuff one of the previous reports. Although the area is a ghost town, there is an organized group of survivors that has not moved in at least 8 months. The Black Berets have continued to hold a few buildings in HB against the zombie horde. We are slowly expanding our boundaries, and would like ANY help!--DerangedFerret 22:43, 24 October 2007 (BST)

A lurching recon by members of the Feral Undead sense no food anywhere; If there is life in this district, it cowers and weeps in frustration. If rebuilding is happening, it's quickly being torn down.--Flune 12:02, 8 October 2007 (PDT)

I actually live here. We retook Hosken after a lightning strike. 2/3 of the NTs are human controlled. The other NT is the only remaining ruined building in the ENTIRE suburb, and has the only horde, 25. It has not moved in days. As you can see, we have made amazing progress in the past few days, and we will take back Greatorex NT after a few more.--DerangedFerret 06:34, 8 September 2007 (BST)

I just ran through this suburb about two minutes ago. I believe an update on security would be nice. the western side is in a mess. especially the north west. Zombies everywhere. NT was down. i counted around 30+ zombies. - Daniel181
Things in the southeast aren't looking good I just passed by The Hosken building and theres a group of Zombies there and the Greatorex Building has been overrun Support would be grateful. - DrRob

August 31st
We are currently fighting to protect the people of Houldenbank against the zombies and enemies of Houldenbank the Totalitarian government of Houldenbank will continue to fight for the people of Houldenbank BTW Houldenbank is now safe you can easily sleep outside without being killed by a zombie so Houldenbank is now a green zone and thanks to us western Houldenbank is safe.
- Don't totalitarian regimes generally enforce decent grammatical skills? I mean, they want their history books to look good, right?
August 14th
Security level tentatively increased to Safe, barring other news.
August 13th
The revive lines are finally empty. As of this moment, not a single person stands in line at Ford Drive. The biggest mob of zombies is 6 outside of a NT building, and the area is generally safer. I died today, but before that, I hadn't died like in a week or so. Please change it back to Green now--DerangedFerret 00:40, 14 August 2007 (BST)
August 9th
Houldenbank is no longer a red zone.The only mob of zombies is standing for revives! Houldenbank should now be classified as green. Could someone change it green, please?--DerangedFerret 19:31, 9 August 2007 (BST)
Changed it to mod, a few too many randsack buildings and a bunch of zombies still around and I'm new so going mod to be safe. Tontoman 23:30 (EST), 9 August 2007

One NT building has been cleared out of zombies. rebuild immediatly!!! some rotters want their revives. just know those rotters are fighting on your side.
June 10th
There are hordes of 60+ zombies moving through the area in storm. Many buildings are broken into and ransaked. The area around is unsafe. My last check shows the Oswey Building is overrun and survivours are still fighting for control of the Solomon Police Department. The situation is looking very grim for the survivors. Many are retreating to other areas. At this moment in time, that seems best course of action, i will be remaining behind to help defend the Tribe Building, with the rest of the Phoneix Rising! Group. However, it is highly adviseable to get yourself to safety. Stay safe out there people... The Zeds dont need their ranks to swell anymore than they already have. Good luck to all of you.

Hello Houldenbank. Your situation is bad. Use this tool for revive requests. A tip from a friendly survivor from Pegton.
June 7th
It's very back and forth. Zombies will knock down a resource building, then the survivors will concentrate to retake it and resupply. Then the zombies will knock it back down again. Right now, Owsley and Solomon are unransacked, but hardly under effective survivor control. Caley R Anderson 09:57, 7 June 2007 (BST)
- Update: Both Owsley and Solomon are full of zombies as of 11:29, 7 June 2007 (GMT) Dreakoth.
June 3rd
Zombies are dispersing in thin concentrations throughout Houldenbank. A large proportion of blocks have at least 3 or 4 zombies on them, some more, but there don't seem to be too many large mobs as there were a week or two ago. Most buildings seem to have been retaken by survivors, but the zombies have dispersed before only to reconcentrate and attack several times already. Owsley fell briefly two days ago, causing a long delay in revivification at the Ford revive point. Survivors should use the current opportunity to stock up on FAKs, ammo, and anything else they may need. NTs who can help cut down on the line of revive requests at Ford (and especially also at the graveyards near St. Maurice's) should do so post haste to increase survivor odds. Caley R Anderson 22:38, 3 June 2007 (BST)
June 1st
The control of Solomon is uncertain. It will be taken by humans only to be retaken by zombies. Efforts are still under way to take it back.

May 27th
Solomon is now in the hands of zombies. Survivor groups are making regular kills, but these zeds are hard to discourage. Far more defenders are in Owsley and its environs, and a concerted effort is being made to take back Solomon. Caley R Anderson 00:01, 28 May 2007 (BST)
May 23rd
Houldenbank is becoming rather dangerous. Zeds have started to swarm. Solomon Lane PD and the Owsley Building NT are both under attack by double-digit numbers; the PD is looking at two or three dozen. St. Maurice's, as usual, only faces sporadic attacks from small numbers of local zeds. Both Owsley and Solomon remain under survivor control for now. --User:Caley R Anderson 14:14, 23 May 2007 (PST)

Overbarricading still a BIG problem. I'm standing infected in front of St. Maurices with no way in, and not enough HP to go cruising around looking for something safe. *Edit* I am now DEAD in front of St. Maurices because I couldn't get in. --User:Lenny17 16:53, 14 May 2007 (GMT+6)
The suburb has been quite for a while except for the occasional PKing by various members of the survivor society. It is advised that you not stay in resource buildings longer then need be to avoid the occasional random PK. That is all... --Deathbringer16 05:06, 15 May 2007 (BST)

The Black Berets are actively addressing the overbarricading problem in the suburb, starting with the south, which is the most populated and is where refugees from Penny Heights are ending up first. We implore residents and refugees to adhere to the barricade plan. Houldenbank is currently nearly clear of zombies. --KAH
March 22nd
Almost all Buildings are at Very High Barricaded and I died because of this. I tried many buildings and every buildings that no one every goes in, or stays were open.
March 15th
Zombies waiting for revive, it's recommended to use some AP to break any nextdoor building down to VS. Not only will you gain some EXP while you wait but, it will open up some VS entry points in a city that's overbarracaded. Necteks who are trying to revive are wasting all their AP searching for VS entry points for safe resting before they can start reviving. Any survivors who are stuck outside and running low on AP, try resource buildings as since these are commonly attacked, their barracades have a good chance being lower, more zombies outside the better. Barracades are not to plan currently.
March 12th
Public Service Announcement
All new citizens who have sought refuge in Houldenbank, please be advised that overbarricading has become critical. There are very few places that are now not either heavily barricaded or extremely heavily barricaded [EHB].
Access to supplies is limited as a result of over-zealous barricading through fear of the zombie hordes. All 3 of the hospitals are EHB and emergency supplies for the sick and wounded are in short supply.
Citizens with the Free-Running skill are urged to provide vital medical assistance to any unfortunate souls who are unable to seek shelter by night-fall. --Riotgirl 21:09, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
- Update: And I would urge people to start de-barricading over-barricaded buildings. Houldenbank has a UBP guys! --Vancouver Smith 01:34, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

February 24th
Houldenbank is not safe anymore, I don't know why some people say the suburb looks secure because this is the worst i've seen it in months. There's some Pker problems at the Hosken Building, 2 days ago we had some dumbass named "hitler" preaching white power and killing survivors with other guy. The revives are VERY slow at the Greatorex building and some people moved away from the suburb after the central area was taken down by a small number of zombies, i'm talking about less than 20 zombies, that's it! Pretty lame, I know. Still, we are not doomed, we are not even near doomed but the quality of the defense right now is definetly poor.

Things are taking a turn for the worse in Houldenbank. Both St. Maurice's and Solomon Lane have been broken into (3 in each) and Solomon Lane has been ransacked. --Vancouver Smith 02:47, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
- Update: Three zeds outside Kitting Museum, 5 outside St. Maurice's Hospital, 3 outside St. Lorenzo's Church. All in all, if you want to clean up Houldenbank, go to these spots and kick some zed butt. Hold Houldenbank!!!!!!!!

Here's my thought: the Greatorex Building is primarily for rotters. Ergo there should be a separate point for non-rotters and all non-rotters around Rotter Revive buildings should be shot. --malax001

All survivors in the Greatorex Building are dead. Building has been ransacked, with 11 zeds outside, some looking for revives. --AlexTheScientist
February 12th
Rebuild WAS going fine. However another visit from the viscious PKer Squidgey was enough to leave several of the defenders of the Greatorex Building dead, now zombified and looking for revives.
We now only ask one thing - Destroy Squidgey and do not revive!!! --Reinbowarrior
February 10th
Several defenders killed. There are 4-5 high level zombies raiding the Greatorex building. A small core of low level rotters relief/NecroTech protection front are holding them at bay, but nearly every night the generator is destroyed and we loose more civilians to the horde. Zombies are pretending to want revives and then destroying the place and the people.
Help required, situation desperate. --Reinbowarrior
High level zombies...I've been smashing the generator almost every chance I get and I'm quite low leveled actually. As long as I'm in the suburb, don't be surprised if you log on to see "A zombie destroyed the generator. A zombie said 'Graaaagh!'"...yes, I'm him. --Graaaagh!
February 6th
Several defenders PK'ed by Squidgey - again - He's level 41 - how do we stop him PKing???
The large Zombie influx to the north is worrying. We need to defend this revive point... --Reinbowarrior
February 4th
I too got PK'ed by Squidgey - I vote justice is done, and he's hunted down.
A group "Necrotech Protection Front" are trying to keep the Greatorex revive point open, but each night some sneaky zombies (with infection!) keeps trying to break in and destroy the generator. It's desperate down there! Help required! --Reinbowarrior

Sanctuary has entered the suburb, to help fellow survivors coming from a victory in Penny Heights, we will clear hostile zombies from all buildings, be it if we are living or dead, killing a Sanctuary member, will only make it stronger. All dead survivors are to return to revive point Ford [93,63, and to while waiting for a revive, help clear the buildings around the revive point from hostile zombies, making it easier for survivors to retake it. Add all zombies that say "mrh" to your contact list, they are your comrades. Be sure to return to the revive point, before you sway. Add http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=407933 to your contact list, and kill him, he is at the revive point, and is a member of a zombie group. And hence does more harm living then dead. First Target: Solomon Lane Police Department, clear it of all hostile zombies, and put down any around the building.

Solomon Lane police station is currently a central zombie-human battle point, with a horde of 26 zombies laying siege to the building, which was a safehouse filled with twelve to fifteen humans. The building has been breached once, but no defenders were slain, as only one zombie apparently entered before the breach was repaired. The zombie fled before it could be eliminated. Evacuations from the safehouse to other more secure locations seem set to occur in the near future.
