Dist:0.3km<br/>"Bradenstoke lies in the north west of the Lyneham and Bradenstoke parish, was originally the main area of the twinned settlement. It was known as "Stoche" meaning settlement, and the area was well wooded, having lain within the boundaries of Braydon Forest. It was from the 12th century that the settlement was called Bradenstoke, and this was applied to the area surrounding Bradenstoke Priory, which was founded during that time."
