Do you recognize these landscapes in LOTR?

As for 'Fornost', a glance at the book would show that it is comparable rather to the Kings' mounds at Old Uppsala than to the city of Leeds - #229

I am not sure about Fornost, but I think the burial mounds of Gamla Uppsala look more like the Barrow-Downs...

I always saw the Beornings lands near Mirkwood and into Mirkwood as the Black Forest.
