Giacomo: Guess it depends how far it sank. Maybe Gondolin was like Lyonesse and was coastal lands which are periodically covered and uncovered?

Nonsense! The whole of Beleriand sank under the sea with only two exceptions: a small area immediately west of the Ered Luin and the island of Tol Morwen. Gondolin was indisputably destroyed and lost forever!

I find your lack of knowledge disturbing.

They grow now but sparsely among the fallen stones of that once fair city.

So, tell me, how could these stone-fruits grow among the fallen stones of Gondolin if Gondolin is no more, because it was sacked and burned by Morgoth's armies, ruined again during the War of Wrath and finally it sank under the sea with the rest of Beleriand at the end of the First Age?

Tsk.
