Buckland

Buckland

Founded after T.A. 2340, partly because the Oldbucks were loosing their influence in Shire politics and partly because Gorhendad Oldbuck and others were fed up with the infiltration of "haunts" from across the Brandywine. Brandy Hall, the great Brandybuck Smial,was dug directly into the traditionally haunted Buck Hill, its linkages to the shadow world having dwindled in the face of the sheer mortal willfulness of the new tenants. The High Hay served as a defensive barrier against the baneful influence of the Old Forest. The smaller villages in the colony, such as Breredon, Grindwall, Haysend, and Newbury, referred to the Master of Buckland, but beyond requiring maintenance of the High Hay and the Buckland Gate , he did little to impose his will on them.
