The Langwell was a river in Rhovanion.
It flowed east from the Misty Mountains into the Anduin where it joined the Greylin. After its junction with the Greylin it was called the Langflood. The Langwell was also the northernmost tributary of the Anduin.[1]
The ruins of Framsburg, a town and former capital of the Éothéod, lay on its northern banks.[2]
According to the Atlas of Middle-earth, it was about fifty miles in length.[3]
