A plank bridge over the stream. The sign on the stile advises 'Private land. No Right of Way. Access for childrens games ONLY.' Bratton is a former agricultural village which lies on the ‘springline’ of the northern escarpment of Salisbury Plain about 2½ miles east of the town of Westbury. Large flocks of sheep were pastured on the Downs south of the village and corn was grown on the flat lands to the north. The village was the home of the renowned firm of R & J Reeves who produced agricultural machinery.
