The map fails to do justice to this noteworthy local stream, other than giving it a rather grand title. A lifelong local resident remembers the source as being a pond, now possibly filled in, located at a high point between Flowers Wood and Bratton Road. The drain flows down along the hedgelines and through the wood, then diverts to feed a duck pond. It continues its mighty flow through a culvert under Kettle Lane, carrying on through a shrubby corridor down the side and across the bottom of the neighbouring field. It eventually disappears from sight, apparently feeding into a hidden channel that runs at the side of the A350. Only one star; don't make a special trip. The entirety of this impressive watercourse lies on private land, and riparian rights are jealously guarded.
