This page and the
links from it contain some information about the history of the area now
covered by the Three Brooks Local Nature Reserve and the area of Bradley
Stoke.
Bradley Stoke was formed from the parishes of Stoke Gifford, Almondsbury and
Winterbourne, albeit the contribution from
Winterbourne is minor. An action still bitterly resented by some residents of those
parishes.
So the history of Bradley Stoke is largely the history of those parishes, or
at least of sections of those parishes.
