Bree
At the point where they reached the East Road and parted from Tom Bombadil, it was running south-west to north-east, and they were about four miles from Bree. (Fog on the Barrow-downs; Bk 1)
Bree faced west under the steep side of Bree Hill. There was a semi-circular dike and hedge on the west side, with one gate to the west, leading to the crossroads where the Greenway crossed the East Road, and a second gate to the south. The inn backed onto the hillside and looked west – it must have been just about where the road swung south from the west gate to the south gate. (At the Sign of ‘The Prancing Pony’; Bk 1).
