Beanamir of Gondor has just left Hobbiton.

I don't really remember a specific description of them in the movie, either, but I got the impression that they were built by orcs rather than Gondorians. (I willingly accept criticism on that subject.) At any rate, when Sam and Frodo were climbing those mentioned steps in ROTK, it looked to me as if they were having the same problems as Merry and Pippin did in Moria in FOTR--as if the steps were built for longer legs and bigger feet than they possessed.
Ideas on that, anyone?
