Here on my journeys I noticed that erü had added more and more to the shire I thought I would investigate, and here I am to tell you all about it!

Shire crafting table?

I would never have thought that the shire folk would have need of one of these but it seems now they do, I have found examples of these in hobbit holes, hobbit farms, windmills! This is useful when amongst the shire folk especially for making hobbit bricks and other hobbit indulgences such as there cakes and fine food! So I won't bore you and of we go again

Hobbit bricks

Now I knew the hobbits were fine bakers and farmers but as a dwarf even I didn't now if there stonework! Yes hobbits have managed to use clay to craft bricks and then using the newly found hobbit crafting table they have been able to make fantastic bricks similar in pattern to rohan and arnroien bricks but in a creamy colour that suits these little fellows well. Even I learned how to craft them soon it wasn't too difficult at all (well hardly for a Dwarf of noble stature)

Shirriff houses

Now I myself have always been very keen on the law and haven't had a run in with these shirriffs yet! But I do Remember that they used to spawn in hobbit taverns....not a good place for an officer or job it shiriff chief indeed to see you if you have had one too many Hahahahahaah! But back to serious matters it appears that the shire folk have gone around building buildings to house the shiriff forces! Not like there other building these were made with normal old clay bricks unlike the new hobbit bricks. These tall ugly building have two storeys! Yes two strange for these hole dwellers and theses so called houses have long thin glass windows. Inside are some crafting tables and some stores of beer and weed and upstairs there a a few beds, it was here were the hobbit shirrif Chiefs now spawn Instead of the pub! Good for me I guess, However these buildings aren't built to be pretty and aren't either they are not popular amongst the folk of the shire but there needs to be a station for the shirriffs somewhere!

Hobbit pastures

Yes last I saw the halflings kept there animals in the barn or roaming the wild fields, but now hobbit farmers have advanced and now large pens keep the animals from straying too far, which is good for us weary travellers, but also for the hobbits themselves and it is much easier to manage they have simply either used fence or hedges to fence sround some farm animals, and there you have it hobbit pastures! Inside are also some chests of farm equipment and other farm related tools as well as a cauldron of water, and should I mention if you wish to enter there of course is a gate to get past the fence or hedges!

Great smials

These are surely the finest home in all the shire they are large ancient tunnels belonging to the lords of the shire, they are built of mainly of stone and hobbit brick, they contains vast rooms like a normal hobbit hole but much larger and grander finished with gold and silver and fine woods, there is even a treasure room to store riches and relics of the old kingdom! Here spawns the powerful hobbit thains who have long ruled the shire, they will also allow you to hire some fine warriors of the shire, the last of the shires great militia! You may hire halfling warriors who wear iron and chain armor and carry a bow and a hobbit club, iron dagger or battleaxe (not all of them just one and the bow). They are extremely fast and seem almost as accurate as the elves of lindon! By my beard if I had the cash I would hire some of these for my journeys! They can also be hired mounted on ponies or boars! You must be respectable enough to hire these halfling warriors 200 alignment should do it!

Thank you very much for reading if you like my ideas and journey please comment and suggest any ideas you think could be added

Critcism is also welcome and if you didn't like it you can comment and tell em what I should change and why!

All of this is can on and comes from the chapter the scouring of the shire you may check the chapter for references and source material! Thank you melons may the hair on your toes never fall out!
