In briefanswer capsule

Barliman Butterbur keeps The Prancing Pony. A sign shows a fat white pony reared up; the front faces the Road, two wings into the hill, rear upper windows at ground level. An arch opens to a courtyard and lit doorway. He offers Shire guests his name and service, then tries to recall something about hobbits. Near the common-room fire he talks with dwarves and strange men among Bree folk and local hobbits.
