Rodbourne Brook

A stream near Lower Stanton St Quintin, Wiltshire. No gauge of its own: what the river map and the banked data say about it.

Rodbourne Brook is a stream on Ordnance Survey’s river map near Lower Stanton St Quintin, Wiltshire, with about 7.9 km of mapped channel. On the map it flows into the River Avon and out to the sea.

Next gauge downstream

Great Somerford on the River Avon, about 710 m along the river below where Rodbourne Brook ends on the map.

After that, Bradford on Avon, about 48 km along the river.

No gauge measures Rodbourne Brook itself. A gauge downstream shows water that has already passed it, mixed with everything else that has joined on the way, so it says nothing exact about this stream.

A sample is taken on a date; it says nothing about the water today. A sample below an overflow does not by itself show where anything in it came from.

What this page can and cannot tell you

Its line, its name and where it flows come from Ordnance Survey’s river map (OS Open Rivers, edition 2026-04), which leaves out many small streams, ditches and culverts. “Flows into” is the map’s word: a channel that is not on the map is not shown here, which does not mean it is not there.
No gauge measures Rodbourne Brook itself, so its own level is not known here.
Storm overflows are listed only where the river map places them on this stream; an overflow it could not place is not counted.
Water samples are England’s only (the Environment Agency’s archive), placed where the map can place their sampling point.
Nothing on this page says whether any place floods. For an address, see its postcode page.
