The stream runs through Bedminster and is bounded on many sides by old heavy industry sites. This area opposite the burial grounds would have been home to the Malago Vale Works, which specialised in Umber, Barytes, Ochre and Oxides. In its time the waters would have been heavily polluted, but these days is much cleaner.
