The expansion to the northern lands was going well and the Wardens of Annúminas were beginning to close the space between their lands and the Rangers making the defence of those lands easier.
It was decided by the Captain's council in the year 31 S.A. to build a second tower on the opposite side of the Weather Hills from Amon Sûl. The tower would be built on the tallest hill on the northern edge of the Weather Hills and it would have many purposes. It would serve as a landmark for any who should come within sight of the Weather Hills. It would also be an outpost for the Rangers in their northern lands and would serve as a means of defence to warn Amon Sûl of any possible attacks from the north. It's final use, the location is not far from the Warden's fortress of Fornost Erain making communication between the Rangers and the Wardens much easier.
The tower of Amon Tirith was smaller than that of Amon Sûl, yet it was still a large tower to many eyes. It had a small garrison of Rangers who were lead by a man appointed as Warden of Amon Tirith by the Captain, his name was Valandil. These men stood guard over the northern lands, protecting them against any foe and welcoming any friend.
A very crude map showing the location of the hill and it's tower.
