Woodhall was a village in the Eastfarthing of the Shire within the woods of Woody End.[1] Frodo, Sam and Pippin met Gildor Inglorion and his people on the road near the Woody End above Woodhall,[2] and the three passed close by the village on the last stages of their journey to Bucklebury Ferry.[3]
Etymology
According to David Salo the name means "hall in a wood", representing a possible Old Hobbitish Wuduheall.[4]
