House Harlaw of Grey Garden is a cadet branch of the main House Harlaw that rules the island of Harlaw from their seat at the Ten Towers. Ser Harras Harlaw is the current lord, and the heir of Rodrik Harlaw. His personal banner is the Harlaw scythe quartered with the peacock of his mother's House Serrett of Silverhill. He also bears a Valyrian steel sword called Nightfall. Grey Garden is on the southeastern shore of the island.
