Snowbourn

The Snowbourn was a river in Rohan that originated beneath the Starkhorn in the northern White Mountains. Its course flowed north past the courts of Edoras then, after a sharp bend, east to meet the Entwash among the grassy plains of Eastfold.
The deep valley above Edoras was called Harrowdale and between its walls the Snowbourn loudly rushed over stones. It was fed by a lesser stream from the west that had cascaded near a mountain path. After making its right turn just beyond Edoras it flowed twelve leagues to its confluence with the Entwash, which was in willow-thickets.
The Snowbourn served as the border between the Westfold and the Eastfold. It was also, in conjunction with the Entwash north of their confluence, the boundary between the military districts of the West-mark and East-mark.
