 Map of the Shire of Danescombe |
Welcome to the Shire of Danescombe, a shire in the Principality of Tir Righ, Kingdom of An Tir, nestled in the Central Okanagan of BC. A land of lakes and desert. A land of beauty and harsh seasons. A land of extremes. Before becoming Danescombe, this land was previously held by Appledore to the south, and is bordered by Krakafjord to the north.
