Ras Mewrim
From Tolkien Gateway
Ras Mewrim was a small cape on the coastline south-west of Eglarest, in the land of the Falas in Beleriand.[1] Bar-in-Mŷl, the "Home of the Gulls", was another name for the cape.[2] The name was first typed Bar-in-Gwael, but Tolkien later changed it to Bar-in-Mŷl and added the translation.[3]
Etymology
The Sindarin name Bar-in-Mŷl consists of bar ("home") and mŷl ("gulls").
