 | | Bag End, a Hobbit-hole in Hobbiton Hill, was built by Bungo Baggins for his wife Belladonna Took at the end of Bagshot Row, presumably before the birth of Bilbo in 1290 ShR, 2890 ThA. |
 | | The earth removed in excavating Bag End, was shot over the edge of the sudden fall in the hillside onto the ground which later became the gardens and earthwalls of the humbler dwellings, and Bagshot Row took its name. |
 | | Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole and that means comfort. |
