River BaranduinThe river called ‘Brandywine’ by the Shire-hobbitsThe Elvish name for the river that rose at Lake Nenuial in the far north, and flowed south and west to reach the Great Sea above Eryn Vorn. For part of its length, it formed the eastern boundary of the Shire, and there the Hobbits turned its name to the more familiar 'Brandywine'.
