Yes that is correct.
Comments on the word 'fosse' A fosse is (as I understand it) a deep trench filled with water, to prevent an enemy to assult a castle, town or fortress. In the description of the fosse around Caras Caladhon it is said that it has green brinks which indicates that it was indeed filled with water - so I guess that you are correct on that point [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Furthermore, the word 'fos' is the Norwegian word for a swift river of wich they indeed have many in Norway. And in Danish water may 'fosse' out of a hole in a pipe or out of tap, or through a breech in a dike. Much like 'pour' in english. Go on please [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
