Arrifield

Arrifield is a fictional location that appears in the works of J. R. R. Tolkien, primarily within "The Lord of the Rings." It is described as a settlement and a region situated in the northern part of Rohan, a kingdom of Men. Arrifield is notable for its proximity to the Misty Mountains and its role as a defensive outpost against potential threats from the north.

The area around Arrifield is characterized by open plains and rolling hills, typical of Rohan's landscape. It is often depicted as a place where the Rohirrim, the horse-lords of Rohan, would gather and prepare for conflict. While not a major city or stronghold in the same vein as Edoras or Helm's Deep, Arrifield serves as a strategic point in the defense of the kingdom.

During the War of the Ring, Arrifield was a place of some concern for King Théoden and his advisors. Its position made it vulnerable to incursions from Orcs and other dark creatures that dwelled in the mountains. The scouts and warriors of Rohan kept a watchful eye on the region. The precise geographical location and the extent of its fortifications are not extensively detailed, but its importance as a borderland is consistently implied in Tolkien's writings. Arrifield represents the broader defensive network of Rohan, emphasizing the constant vigilance required to protect their lands.
