The brook is on the right, deeply cut and rather straight compared with the mill stream. The mill stream has a sinuous course, so it seems likely that it was the original course of the brook, and the current brook course is man-made. This bank is probably the spoil from digging the current brook. This must have happened a good while ago, certainly before Ordnance Survey mapping.
