It sat at the intersection of the Gwathló River and the North-South Road. == Summary == Tharbad was founded as a Númenórean settlement sometime before SA 883. There were many lumber camps in Enedwaith and Minhiriath, providing timber for the harbour of Lond Daer; with this in mind, it stands to reason that Tharbad was heavily fortified at this time, to protect the Númenórean workers from attacks by n...")
