Aah nerts, I was so sure the "sleep but didn't rest" referred to Merry, Pippin and Frodo being lulled to sleep with the Old Willow being the singer. Well played.

Thanks @Lail, the fact that this place had been built by someone of unknown race was what led me to think it was Tom B's house.

I'm going to stick with the locations theme.
