Tol Morwen

A survivor of the wreck of Beleriand

Map of Tol Morwen
The islands west of Lindon, including Tol Morwen (somewhat speculative)1

An island that stood off the coasts of Middle-earth after the drowning of Beleriand at the end of the First Age. It was the site of the Stone of the Hapless and the grave of Morwen Eledhwen, hence its name.


Notes

No final map exists of the isles beyond Himling. The map shown above is based on a rough sketch map reproduced in volume 7 of The History of Middle-earth, superimposed on the known geography of Beleriand during the First Age.
