Wye TH is currently a small college town between Ashford and Canterbury on the River Stour. It's surrounded by hilly terrain—the North Downs across the river, and Crundale and the Wye Downs to the east and south—with flatter farmland to the southwest toward Ashford. On Riddley's map, How Fents seems to be a little further southeast away from the river—but this is not surprising since these are semi-nomadic people who live in movable settlements, rather than in the ruins of the old cities.
The pun between Wye and How is not arbitrary: "How" suggests the search for knowledge, and people on the edge of survival are more concerned with "how" than "why."
