The Rainy Stair, also known as Dimrost, was a cascading waterfall on the stream of Celebros, where it flowed down into the River Teiglin on the borders of Brethil.

The outer-wall that surrounded the Pelennor fields was called the Rammas Echor. I hope this is what you're looking for:

Quote:
For ten leagues or more it ran from the mountains' feet and so back again, enclosing in its fence the fields of the Pelennor:

Lindolirian got it, but NightKnight gets points for creativity, although a fountain is technically moving.

OK...
If you wanted to take a baby present to Dior Eluchil, but you lived in Caranthir's Land; on which rivers would you have to paddle order to get there?

You would have to paddle down Gelion and then turn left on Adurant.

Well, sometimes you never can be too sure; some people want answers to be really specific. O well!

A little geometry problem for ye...
What is the area in square feet of the Ring of Isengard?

That would be it if the Ring was 328 feet from rim to rim. It is much larger.
