So Sam planted saplings in all the places where specially beautiful or beloved trees had been destroyed, and he put a grain of the precious dust in the soil at the root of each. He went up and down the Shire in this labour; but if he paid special attention to Hobbiton and Bywater no one blamed him. And at the end he found that he still had a little of the dust left; so he went to the Three-Farthing Stone, which is as near the centre of the Shire as no matter, and cast it in the air with his blessing.
– The Return of the King (Book 6), Chapter 9

The Three-Farthing Stone sits close to the centre of the Shire and marks the meeting point of the Eastfarthing, Southfarthing, and Westfarthing.
