The milestone records that Exeter is 10 miles distant. Formerly, Bradninch was on the main road from Taunton to Exeter, but for the last two centuries, the village has been bypassed. A correspondent, Jon Kington wrote: "I was born in the white house on the right and spent my early childhood there. Originally it was a pub called the Bradninch Arms and there was a range of buildings, including a ballroom and skittle alley, surrounding a cobbled yard behind the wall at the end, they were built of cob (as is the house) and they all suddenly collapsed in a storm one night. Opposite, where the bungalows are, was waste land."
