Archet

Archet was the most remote of the settlements of the Bree-land, set among the trees on the edge of the Chetwood, somewhat to the east of Bree itself. A few hobbits lived there, but the inhabitants were predominantly Big Folk.

When the hobbits and Gandalf returned to Bree after their journey south, Barliman Butterbur told them of the fight within Bree in which some Bree-landers were killed. After the fight the robbers took to hiding in the woods beyond Archet.

Etymology

Archet means "wood edge" or "High-wood". Chet is a British word meaning "Forest, wood", related to Celtic. British ard means "high"
