The brook rises near the site of Snelshall Priory, flows through Furzton where it is joined by a tributary from Emerson Valley, becomes the "tear-drop lakes" in Loughton and flows into the River Great Ouse at New Bradwell.

Famous quotes containing the word brook:
“A leaping tongue of bloom the scythe had spared
Beside a reedy brook the scythe had bared.
The mower in the dew had loved them thus,
By leaving them to flourish, not for us,
Nor yet to draw one thought of ours to him,
But from sheer morning gladness at the brim.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
