About Slad Brook

Slad Brook is a small river in Gloucestershire, England. It rises in woodland to the north of Down Hill, and to the south of the village of Sheepscombe. It heads in a southerly and south-westerly direction through open countryside until it reaches the north-easterly edge of Stroud. It is then culverted beneath the town. Formerly it was a tributary of the River Frome, but was diverted into the Thames and Severn Canal as part of flood defence works shortly after the canal was abandoned in 1954.
