Duke Speedy of Leighton

Shelob's lair?
Kirkwood?
Dol Guildor?
Mount Gunabad?
Minas Morgul?
Moria?

Let's face it, by the end of the third age, anything East of Mitchel Delving is suspect, Buckland is well out...

When My daughter got married they the tables at the reception were named after places in Lord of the Rings (They are both mad on it).

My eldest daughter had the same theme at her wedding (the top table was 'The Shire'). My only concern throughout the proceedings was when the groom slipped on the ring .....

p.s. Liked the crack on Bag End Andy, btw.  ;D
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

I think the residents of Buckland might complain.

To keep me amused on the daily walks I have named many local features after LOTR names.

This analysis of the siege of Gondor in Lord of the Rings might interest some.
