I am trying to compile a list of the sets that were actually built and filmed inside of the Weta workshop.. but it really is failing to a degree, so I am calling for help.

What I remember:
the top of Weathertop
Dead Marshes

The part where Merry finds pippin on the battle field. I saw on the extra DVD that the elephant in the scene was made by weta. Not sure if that counts or not. *shrugs*

The trolls from Trollshaw, for the Extended Edition of FotR

Shelob's tunnels, around her lair, I believe, as well as her lair itself.
