Swanfleet

The Swanfleet, or Nîn-in-Eilph in Sindarin, was a vast marshy area in Eastern Eriador, home to an abundance of Swans, waterfowl either black or white in color.
Formed where the Glanduin (mistakenly labelled as "Swanfleet river" on some maps) joined the Greyflood, the Swanfleet was effectively an inland delta, with innumerable streams and a very uncertain difference between land and water.
According to The Atlas of Middle-earth, it was about fifty miles in length from west to east and over twenty-five miles from north and south.The Atlas of Middle-earth, Regional Maps, "The Misty Mountains"
== History ==
This region of marshes strongly resembled the Gladden Fields on the other side of Misty Mountains, and so many Stoors felt right at home here after their migration into Eriador. These Stoors remained here until the Great Plague nearly wiped them out, and the remainder then went to the Southfarthing of the Shire.
Near the Swanfleet was a ford over the Glanduin, from where led a road to the ruins of Ost-in-Edhil, the ruined city of Eregion.
