Bramley Cottage, High Street, was built in the late 17th or early 18th century. The left bay is timber framed, the right bay, in brick, is probably a rebuild. All under a thatch roof. There is a lean-to extension on the left, over which the thatch has been swept down. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1365584 Ogbourne St George is a village in the valley of the River Og in Wiltshire. It is sited just off the Roman Road from Cirencester to Winchester, about 7 miles south of Swindon and some 3¼ miles north of Marlborough. The name derives from the Saxon 'Oceburnan' or 'Oc[c]a's stream'. There is a great deal of evidence of prehistoric, Roman and medieval activity including Neolithic flint tools, Iron Age coins, Romano-British coins and pottery and medieval pottery fragments. Ogbourne St George today is a commuter village.
