The Yale

The Yale was the name of the low-lying lands of the Shire's Eastfarthing that lay along the northern side of the long road from Stock westwards to Tuckborough.The Lord of the Rings, The Fellowship of the Ring, "A Part of the Shire" map 
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. 
==Etymology==
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.
