Description
Located in the Northfarthing of the Shire, the Greenfields lie at the northeastern border of the Shire, north of Brockenborings and northwest from Scary.
The Greenfields is an area of rolling flat land covered in green grass, where many sheep farmers of Brockenborings take their sheep to graze, and many Hobbits like to go for a stroll in the sun. Recently, something has upset the wildlife of the Greenfields, particularly the bears, making them aggressive. Several Hobbits in Brockenborings and Scary have reported seeing goblins in the Greenfields, and are afraid to venture there fearing the return of goblin chief Golfimbul.

Lore
In 2747 of the Third Age, the Greenfields were the site of the historic Battle of the Greenfields in which Bandobras "Bullroarer" Took lead a force of Hobbits against an invasion of goblins from Mount Gram lead by goblin chief Golfimbul. Bullroarer Took charged at chief Golfimbul, and knocked the goblin chief's head clean off with a swing of Bullroarer's club. Golfimbul's head flew 100 yards through the air, then rolled into a rabbit hole. Hobbit legend tells that this is the birth of the game of golf.
