I would say Helm's Deep, because Aragorn and the Rohirrim got rescued by Gandalf just as Frodo and the other Hobbits got bailed out of the Old Forest mess by Tom Bombadil.

The Ford of Bruinen? They both stopped great Evil. In the Ford's case, the Nazgûl, and the girdle stopped Orcs and other nasties.
