Everholt

The boar-wood beneath the Halifirien

'Everholt' is ancient English for 'boar wood'. It was part of the greater Firien Wood that lay at the feet of the Halifirien on the borders of Rohan. In the late Third Age, a boar of monstrous proportions dwelt in this wood: the Boar of Everholt. After driving every last Orc from his kingdom, King Folca of Rohan rode to Everholt to hunt the boar. He found and killed it, but received mortal tusk-wounds in return, and died soon afterwards.
