Encyclopedia of Arda: Grey Havens (161 words)
The havens at the mouth of the Lhûn
The road shown here running eastward from the Grey Havens is documented (it was the same road that ran through the Shire and on across Eriador to Rivendell).
However, west of Michel Delving, its exact course is unknown, and so the road marked on this map is somewhat speculative.
Cirdan the Shipwright (2883 words)
Havens of the Falas; Isle of Balar; Grey Havens
As Lord of the Grey Havens, Cirdan oversaw the departure of the Elves across the Sea to the Undying Lands, and it is said that he remained in Middle-earth until the Last Ship set sail.
The Havens at the Mouths of the Sirion are attacked by the sons of Feanor.
