 Aegir
Aegir's hall was filled with shining gold, bright enough to serve as light, and the cups in this hall filled themselves with ale.
Aegir's hall does not necessarily reside in Asgard, as it is not listed in the Grimnismal, though it is described in some detail in the Lokasenna, thus one cannot claim with total assurance that he is a member of the Aesir or Vanir (though as a Jotun, he is no less deserving of worship).
In the Lokasenna, Aegir is mentioned many times, both by the gods themselves, and by the narrator who describes his hall and the events leading up to the drama.

 Environment Agency - Severn Bore and Trent Aegir
The Trent Aegir is named after the god of the seashore or ocean in Norse mythology - and like the Scandinavian sailors in the myths, river people would fear the coming of the aegir as it is very unpredicatable and would sometimes surface to destroy ships.
It usually appears during high spring tides, but as with the Severn Bore, its size can be affected by winter floods and the resulting rise in water level.
The size of a bore or aegir can also be affected by opposing winds or high freshwater levels which reduce its height and delay its time of arrival, whereas a following wind can increase its height and advance the time it arrives.
