235995.M41 Derelict Grettoris (images!)

Grettoris System Summary: 1 earth type (temperate), 5 rockworlds, 3 gas giants.
Population Density: Low (estimated at about 10,000)
Economy: Subsistence.
Military: Nil
Census Militarium Strat Assessment: Nil
Special Notes: Grettoris was the hub of activity in the sector prior to the peasants revolt, and was effectively an industrial colony of Nor. The planet was stormed by Imperial Loyalists during the suppression, much of the colony was destroyed, and most of what was left was salvaged during the establishment of Enclave for construction projects on that world. Scott’s colony on Enclave has effectively taken on the role that was played by Grettoris, though on a smaller scale. Although temperate, Grettoris suffers from extremes of climate, temperatures falling sharply during the winter months. This gives the world’s vegetation a scrubby, stunted appearance. There are substantial ruins from the pre-revolt period, principally those of Shan-Down, the main settlement. A small population clings to existence in some of the suburbs of Shan-Down, which maintains rudimentary levels of civilisation.

Update:
As of 235995.M41 The Shield Crusade establishes it's main base of operations on the Eastern Scatter world of Grettoris, taking possession of the ruins of the space port. Remote images show Templars investigating a control bunker close to the perimeter of the landing fields.
