Hey Kai, I find this resource (Medieval demographics made easy) to be a really useful tool for estimating settlement sizes and working out how large a settlement should be to support a given population. From a quick count of the number of buildings, I would estimate this settlement to be in the 1000 - 2000 population range, putting it down the small end of towns as defined by this document.

So, it can be classified as a small town. The article says that politically important towns have walls.
