Tighfield as portrayed in The Lord of the Rings Online
Tighfield was a village in the Westfarthing of the Shire.
It was about twenty miles west of the village of Nobottle, which was also in the Westfarthing, and was located on a road that connected it to nearby Gamwich and Little Delving.[1]
History[]
Tighfield was the home of the Gamwiches or "Gammidges", who were the ancestors of the Gamgee family and the Ropers. The Ropers owned or perhaps managed a rope making business here and a ropewalk was located here. Samwise Gamgee's grandfather Hobson Gamgee managed the ropewalk until it was turned over to his son Andwise Roper, and then to Anson Roper in later times.
