Newbury
Newbury was a town in the north-eastern Buckland, to the north of Crickhollow and next to the High Hay.
Etymology
Bury, from the Old English burh, means "fortified enclosure". This, combined with Newbury's proximity to the High Hay, perhaps suggests that Newbury was built as a more recent guard against intruders from the Old Forest.
Inspiration
There is a town named Newbury in Berkshire, England.
Portrayal in adaptations
2007: The Lord of the Rings Online:
Newbury is a small hamlet just past the Buckland Gate. At which Newbury ends and Bucklebury begins can be hard to determine.
