The Eastfarthing was a Farthing of the Shire on the borders of Buckland, containing the towns Frogmorton, Brokenborings, and Whitfurrows and the farms of the Marish. Originally, the Eastfarthing was under the control of the Oldbuck family. Even after these became the Brandybucks, many of the farmers of the Marish followed the Master of Buckland rather than the Shire-thain and the Mayor of Michel Delving. It is the smallest of all the Farthings.
Areas[]
The Yale was the name of the low-lying lands here that lay along the northern side of the long road from Stock westwards to Tuckborough. This seems to have been a sparsely populated area, and in fact the map of the Shire in The Lord of the Rings marks only a single building here. The meaning of the Yale's name is obscure. The well-known English personal and placename "Yale" has its origins in a Welsh expression meaning "fertile upland." Its use may suggest that the Hobbits who named it had contacts with "strange" languages, possibly those of Dunland.
The Marish was the fertile, boggy farmlands in the Eastfarthing where the Oldbuck family is believed to have lived before Gorhendad Oldbuck removed the family across the Brandywine to Buckland and changed their name.[1][2]
