The Bracegirdles were a great and important Hobbit-clan of the Shire. Their main settlement was Hardbottle. The Bracegirdles of the Shire had preserved an old legend that one of their forefathers had "come from the South of South", possibly a reference to the legendary Droggo Nimblefingers, who was known as "Bracegirdle".
