| - Sackville is a town of about 5400 people in southern New Brunswick. It is located on the Nova Scotia border.
- Originally Sairinan (S. "Magician's Valley") had been an ancient Eriadoran village fallen into ruin after the Second Northern War.The Northmen who had settled here after T.A. 1412 , fleeing troubles in Cardolan ,had forgotten the village's old name in favor of Saccburh . Later that Hobbits formed the majority of its population , their name of Sackville was winning out.Proximity to the rugged Men of Eriador's Red Hills bestowed a (not entirely undeserved) reputation for crudity upon the residents of Sackville, who had taken on many of the uncouth ways of their neighbors.The second-largest town in the Southfarthing, the setting for wheatfields and orchards along the River Fayne and terraced vineyards and melon-fields on the nearby hills. The Sackvillians were rare among Hobbits in the pride they took in selling their goods "over the bounds". Wine and leaf from Sackville made its way to distant Saralainn in the south and even Dale in the far off eastern Wild. Folk from these parts came to Sackville to buy, and here they were not treated as suspiciously as they might be elsewhere in the Shire.
