| - The North Moors of the Shire was the name of a large region in the northern part of the Shire. The North Moors were fifty leagues from the Overbourn marshes in the Southfarthing It also the location of the village of Long Cleeve which lie on the edge of the moors. Halfast Gamgee went exploring there and saw what he thought was a Tree-men or one of the giants, which was told to Ted Sandyman by Sam Gamgee. Is it possible this was an an Ent or Entwife.
- After the fall of Arthedain the Northmoors served as a northern frontier of the Shire . Beyond the moors lay Tammerglade Woods, good hunting country but also the refuge for desperate types drifting south off the Wildland Trail to avoid the Rangers and Rivermen. At the western end of the moors, the Westlake Trail tracked past the ruins of Tarmabar to connect Long Cleeve with the hill country. At the eastern end of the moors, the Lakehead Trail passed from Greenfields through the wild country that used to be the fief of Calembar all the way to Lake Evendim. It crossed the Oakshade Stream in a little valley. To the Hobbits of the Northfarthing, this little river crossing, called Lost Ford, symbolized their northern border. The ford was often mentioned in conversation about the northern bounds

| - After the fall of Arthedain the Northmoors served as a northern frontier of the Shire . Beyond the moors lay Tammerglade Woods, good hunting country but also the refuge for desperate types drifting south off the Wildland Trail to avoid the Rangers and Rivermen. At the western end of the moors, the Westlake Trail tracked past the ruins of Tarmabar to connect Long Cleeve with the hill country. At the eastern end of the moors, the Lakehead Trail passed from Greenfields through the wild country that used to be the fief of Calembar all the way to Lake Evendim. It crossed the Oakshade Stream in a little valley. To the Hobbits of the Northfarthing, this little river crossing, called Lost Ford, symbolized their northern border. The ford was often mentioned in conversation about the northern bounds . A white ghost was said to haunt these bounds, appearing mainly on the North Moors but occasionally turning up around Lost Ford. Whether she was an Elvish or mannish spirit was unsure, but some thought she might have been related to the last of the Tarmas. Local Hobbits who saw this slightly glowing whitish figure on the Moors after dark knew to ran quickly for wooded or lower ground, for the ghost shied away from trees. The spirit was said to judge people she met, and she used a ghostly bow on them. Her arrows carried curses; minor ones for lazy shepherds, banes of fear for thieves and rustlers, and ugly deaths for brigands and murderers.
