Introduction:
Lamedon is one of the Regions of Gondor. It's capital was Calembel. There isn't much lore about it. So we will probably make up own one, or take ideas from MERP. Also it one of the more Populated Regions of Gondor, so many Villages, Farms, and smaller Towns will be made. Also due the being there of Lords, 1 or 2 castles aswelly, you shouldn't expect to many tho.
Background Lore
Lotr-Wikia
Lamedon was a region and fiefdom in southern Gondor.
Lamedon was a series of valleys lying south of the White Mountains. Its chief town was the city of Calembel, where Aragorn and the host of the Dead camped during their journey to Pelargir during the War of the Ring.
The river Ciril flowed south through Lamedon.
Tolkien Gateway
Lamedon was a region and fiefdom in southern Gondor; a series of valleys through which the Ringló and Ciril rivers flowed south.[1] It was one of the most densely populated regions in Gondor. At the time of the War of the Ring its lord was Angbor.
During that war, Angbor did not send any soldiers to Minas Tirith during the initial assault, as he chose to defend instead the southern city of Linhir, which rested near the mounds of the river Gilrain.[1] He held off the Southron assailants coming from the Harad and the Haven of Umbar for a long while. The only men Minas Tirith received from Lamedon were some scattered hillmen without a captain.[2]
At the time Aragorn passed through Lamedon with the Grey Company, the Army of the Dead drove forth the assailants from Linhir, though the staunch defenders fled as well. Angbor alone remained and braved the fear of the Dead. Then Aragorn bade him gather his folk and follow them. The Grey Company departed first, and by the time Angbor joined them with all the horsemen he could muster, the Corsairs of Umbar had been driven forth, and the Dead released. Many of the men of Lamedon, as well as soldiers from Lebennin and various other southern fiefs, came in ships to Minas Tirith, where they bore themselves bravely in battle. But Angbor, leading four thousand, went by land, coming to garrison Minas Tirith after the hosts departed for the Black Gate and the ensuing Battle of the Morannon.[3]

Watch out for jobs in the evening hours (Europe). I run jobs every Saturday evening and try to do one or two more during the week.I'm signing up
Projects on MCME are usually quite large and take some months to finish.ok when is the project
Make Lamedon great again!Lets get Lamedon back on Track.
how many houses are left to do cause if i have spare time i can build 2-3 more i think
I really like the town Smailholm, with its stewdam and nice style, only, maybe we could reconsider the name Smailholm? I often inspire my builds from irl, and I think it is okay to inspire names from irl, as Tolkien did that himself as well. But using the name of an irl place and from which the main building is inspired as well, is perhaps a little too much? I have come up with a possible alternative name: Ossarnen. It is from MERP (Middle-earth Role Playing): Setmaenen . In MERP it is a mining town in Lamedon on the slopes of the White Mountains, just a Smailholm.The northern village in Lamedon is nearly complete, with all houses built with interior. Thanks for your help, artist and adventurers! Just some last tweaks in places and a general inspection of build quality. Work will now move to the valley east of it.
The name of the village has been decided by @_Luk and I as Smailholm, as the peel tower located in the village is based upon a rl tower named that. Smailholm sounds enough like a lore styled name to fit its purpose.
Will let you know of upcoming jobs in the next valley soooooon
