But, what is not so commonly known, is that Tolkien’s brother lived in Evesham. A small market town in Worcestershire that was the ancestral home to Tolkien’s mother, Mabel Suffield.

The Hobbits reach the The Prancing Pony inn at Bree, where Frodo uses a false name, Underhill. Later, after singing a song on a table, he trips and accidentally puts the Ring on his finger, disappearing, which causes a commotion. Butterbur points out to Frodo a particularly weather-beaten individual called Strider. The innkeeper says that Strider is a Ranger, a wanderer among the northern lands. Strider makes some pointed comments, and Frodo begins to wonder how much the man knows. Frodo suddenly notices that Pippin, who has had too much beer, is telling the crowd about Bilbo’s birthday party—and getting very close to telling the part about the Ring.
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring: In the movie, the inn appears to be frequented only by suspicious-looking men; no hobbits are seen, and the atmosphere is more ominous than it is in the book. Although the scene is not officially marked as an extended scene, a few lines of dialogue are in the extended edition but not the theatrical cut of the film. One is the Gate Keeper remarking that the hobbits are "out of the Shire, from your talk," and another is Butterbur stating that he is "always proud to cater to Little Folk." After Frodo takes the ring off, Strider pulls him into a private room and tells him to be more careful. He adds, as the other hobbits burst in, that there is no time to wait for Gandalf, because the Ringwraiths are coming. The Prancing Pony was based inside the central hub of the town, near stables and various merchant stalls. Since Bree was built on the cross-roads of the Greenway and Great East Road, it was a fairly well-traveled inn, and was so accustomed to hobbits that designated hobbit-rooms had been built. Barliman Butterbur was the innkeeper at the time of the War of the Ring. Nob and Bob were two hobbits that worked under him: Nob was a general servant, and Bob was as a ostler, tending to the horses and ponies. They would meet up at The Bell Inn Moreton-in-Marsh and have a lengthy catch-up over a pint in a tiny corner of the pub.This is just inches from the famous Toy Shop with a white pony hanging over the shop as a sign!

The Men and Dwarves have a discussion about trouble in the south. There is worry that large numbers of people may be coming up the North Road, seeking refuge from something. The local Hobbits, however, are more interested in hearing news from the Shire, and press Sam and Pippin for information about the "Shire Underhills". The chapter begins with the narrator explaining a little about the village of Bree, which lies at the end of the East Road on an ancient and well-traveled crossroads. The village is populated mostly by Men who, according to legend, are descended from the first Men to migrate to Western Middle-earth. We're also told that in the areas outside Bree-land live a different group of Men known as the Rangers, whose origins are not known; they wander the land and often bring news from outside, but are not friends of the Bree-landers.

The Prancing Pony is shown as a less pleasant and welcoming environment than in the book, and seems to be populated only by rough-looking men, with no other hobbits.
In 1960 J.R.R. Tolkien began a complete rewrite of The Hobbit in which he sought to refashion the story in the same "epic" mode as The Lord of the Rings. As part of this refashioning, Tolkien added elements that would tie the landscape of Eriador seen by Bilbo to that seen by Frodo. The stopping-place in Bree was specifically mentioned: "There [Bree] they spent their last comfortable night for many a day to come, in the great inn of Bree, the Prancing Pony, well-known to the hobbits of the east side of the Shire. " [11] In this version of the story Tolkien also sought to maintain an exact timeline, and the arrival at Bree occurred on 2 May 2941. [12] Eventually though Tolkien abandoned this effort to rewrite Bilbo's tale. Rosebury, Brian (2003) [1992]. Tolkien: A Cultural Phenomenon. Palgrave Macmillan. ISBN 978-1403-91263-3.
