I live in a place that is so much like the Shire my friends and I once thought about making a film of a bit of LoTR in the countryside surrounding our quaint little Cotswold Limestone town. Then we realised how much effort and stuff it would take so we got drunk instead.

Seriously though, there are places near me called Bywater, Newbury and Crickhollow, check your map of the Shire and you'll find these places. Unfortuantley, Wotton-under-Edge doesn't feature on the map.

EDIT: We also havbe tons of local pubs, the sort where on a Thursday or Friday night a load of old men bring their guitars, mandolins and banjos and have a session, and they lock the doors and you stay there till three in the morning, ace!
