Minsterley Brook

Description

The source of this brook is positioned at the North-east part of Stapeley Hill (the site of the stone circle, Mitchell's Fold). It is later on joined by other smaller streams flowing into it. It is a steep rocky brook, fast flowing with occasional small water falls. The brook passes down the steep wooded Hope Valley which houses the nature reserve, afterwards passing the head offices of Espiritu Balloons in Plox Green. The brook then descends less steeply down past Minsterley's Parish Hall. After this it joins the larger river called the Rea Brook.
