| Description
| - 大スミアルまたはトゥックの偉大な地は、有名なバンドブラス・トゥック（牛うなり）の祖父にあたる第十代目ホビット庄のセイン、アイゼングリム二世によってタック村で発掘された。大スミアルは、名家ブランディバックのブランディ館と同じ類の家族向けの大穴であり、奥深くて幾多の地下道から成り立っている。何世代にも渡ってトゥックの住居となるばかりでなく、暗黒時代の侵略に備えるためにデザインされたものでもあった。
長年平和と調和に包まれてきたホビット庄であったが、その境界で騒乱が起きようとしており、それはそこに住むホビットの田園生活に少しずつ侵入しようとするものであった。バギンズという名のホビットを求めて黒の乗手が一斉に捜索を始め、謎めいた山賊の首領「シャーキィ」に仕える悪漢どもも現われ始めたのである。中には、ホビット庄の暮らしの向上を図ってシャーキィの大義に加わるホビットもいた。じきに大スミアルは要塞と化し、中つ国に落ちてくる影と共に戦争の砦へと変貌を遂げるのである。
ホビット庄はその先に渦巻く混乱に影響され始めたばかりである。しかし、大スミアルのトゥックは最も忠実で向こう見ずなホビットとして、シャーキィの男たちの脅威に立ち向かっていくのだった。

- The name of the great underground dwelling dug at Tookbank by Isengrim II in the late 27th century of the Third Age. The old fortified smial dug by Isumbras I a thousand years earlier had been of little use to the Tooks after the last Men were run out of the Shire.

The workers on the project stumbled or excavated many remnants of the old fortifications as the work progressed. One of the less discussed events of the digging was the discovery of an ancient mass grave, one filled with skeletons twice the size of a Hobbit. The story was given out that these were victims of the Great Plague, buried here by Hobbits after the epidemic's passing. In truth, and only Gandalf suspected it, was that the filled sinkhole Isengrim turned into a duck pond was used for executions of bandits, trespassers, and spies during the first decades of the Shire grant. Isumbras the Long and his followers wished no quarrel with royal officials, so many of these unfortunates were weighed down with their belongings and dumped in the pond in which they were drowned. Although the bodies were later reburied, many valuable mathoms from the 17th century were quietly locked away in a chest in Great Smials.
