Ethring profits from the traffic along the Gondor Road .Most of the large farms in Lamedon are in the area, and Ethring becomes a large market town at harvesttime. Mining and smithing are among the subsidiaryindustries. Like the other towns of Lamedon ,Ethring maintains a "rustic "feel ,especially in comparison to Gondor's busy seaports .Locals in Ethring and other nearby towns are more likely to be more suspicious of outsiders and peculiar behavior than their more worldly kinsmen ,and travellers must take pains to be inconspicuous.
