Causeway Forts

The Causeway Forts was a twin-towered fortification in the Rammas Echor which surrounded the Pelennor Fields.
Its purpose was to guard the Causeway against the possibility of enemy attack.
== History ==
During the War of the Ring, they were guarded by Faramir and the men under his command. At the start of the Siege of Gondor on March 13, 3019, the Causeway Forts were overrun and captured by the armies of Mordor under the Lord of the Nazgûl, and Faramir and his troops were forced to retreat.
The defence lasted the better part of a day and bought vital time for Rohan to ride to the aid of Gondor.
