Andrath

The Andrath was a defile between the Barrow-downs (to the west) and the South Downs (to the east) in Eriador. Through this narrow way just south of Bree passed the North-South Road (Greenway).
History
When the Black Riders came up the Greenway in search of the One Ring, the Black Captain established a camp at Andrath. From there he sent some Riders out to patrol while he visited the Barrow-downs.
Etymology
Andrath means "Long Climb", apparently consisting of the Sindarin elements and + rath.
Portrayal in adaptations
2007: The Lord of the Rings Online:
Andrath is a prominent area within Bree-land and contains the prominent "Halecatch Lake". The "South-guard Ruins" on the Greenway divide into norther and southern Andrath, the latter belonging to the in-game Cardolan region.
