DESCRIPTION
The shire covers the upper valley of the river Weden, and that of its tributary the Ush. The area is quite hilly, rising in the west to join the Rimn Hills, and to the south lie the forested North Friths uplands, being a part of Michelweald. Willowbury, the shire-seat, was for periods of time the capital of lathe Sutherewland. The city's old centre, Eldertown, situated on a peninsula created by rivers Ush and Weden, shows a large number of spectacular half-timbered buildings.
