It is a fantasy land through which millions have walked in their own imaginations.
Now fans of Lord of the Rings can see Middle Earth as its creator J.R.R. Tolkien did.
A previously unseen map, drawn by the author's son Christopher and added to by Tolkien himself, is going on display for one day only.
Duncan Kennedy reports.

Clarification: It is J.R.R. Tolkien's annotations that are new, not the map itself. This annotated map was revealed quite some time ago, but I'm glad that it is receiving a public exhibition.
"Far, far below the deepest delvings of the Dwarves, the world is gnawed by nameless things. Even Sauron knows them not. They are older than he."
