[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Ashley Yeates, a 30-year-old gardening and construction expert from Bedford, England, constructed a hobbit hole in his [url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/96163.html]garden[/url], modeled after the famous digs of Bilbo Baggins.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"It was around the time that the first 'Hobbit' film was due to be released," Yeates told the Daily News. "I'd made previous smaller hideaways and I started thinking about taking it to the next level. I like just building things that are going to shock people."[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Yeates made the hobbit hole without a blueprint, drawing on his knowledge of the "Lord of the Rings" books by J.R.R. Tolkien.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"I had one tiny sketch of bits and bobs, but it came from a vision in my head," Yeates said. "There was no direct research, really. Though, of course, we had watched the films."[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The completed hobbit hole can comfortably fit three adults. But when Yeates unveiled the project at a party over the summer, the neighborhood children didn't mind squishing a bit.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"There were about 10 kids in there, running in and out," Yeates said. "They loved it so much."[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The project was so successful that Yeates is hoping to build another one.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"I noticed the real [url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/96163.html]hobbit[/url] holes go inwards into a hill rather than downwards. If I did get a commission for another one, it would be spectacular," Yeates said. "There could be multiple rooms, all kinds of things. I'd very much like to make another one. "[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Hear that, hobbit fans? Your next home project could make Gandalf proud.[/size][/font]
