The Shire - Bucklebury Ferry



This unmanned ferry on the Brandywine River is one of the main crossing points between the Shire and Buckland.

After a close encounter with a cloaked rider, the raft serves as a literal lifeboat for the Hobbits. Huddled, they float through the night, hoping to reach safety before the pursuer crosses Brandywine Bridge.

The Shire - Bamfurlong

  

Located in The Marish, Maggot’s farm is well known amongst Hobbits for its abundant crop fields.

Taking a shortcut through the corn, the Hobbit pair stumbles upon Merry and Pippin, who are helping themselves to the bountiful harvest yet again. Before long, they have to run so as not to be caught by Maggot.

The Shire - South Farthing

  

Stretching from Three Farthing Stone in the centre of the Shire all the way down to its southernmost border, this warmer region is renowned for its lush fields and crops.

Frodo and Sam travel cross-country, as advised by Gandalf, in order to reach Bree. Although still in the Shire, this is an important milestone for Sam, being the farthest away from home he’s ever travelled.
