In 1855 the River was described as follows;[4] "Brant, a tributary of the Witham in the western part of the county of Lincoln. This small stream has its rise in several fine springs in the parish of Hough-on-the-Hill, and pursues its humble course in a northern direction, westward of a range of high land." NameThe origin of the name is from the Old English; brant (meaning "steep", "deep"). Steep being a steeply sloping incline.[5] CourseThe Brant rises on the flank of Summerfields Hill to the south-west of Gelston near Hough-on-the-Hill and curves round such that it flows almost directly north, parallel to the Limestone Lincolnshire Edge. The river flows past Brandon to which it gives its name, then reaches Stragglethorpe where it is joined by The Beck, which drains Fulbeck. At Brant Broughton it meets with its largest tributary the Sand Beck, and then continues north passing the Low Fields of Navenby, Boothby Graffoe and Coleby where it flows to the west of the deserted medieval village of Skinnand and the remains of Somerton Castle. Further north it then reaches its confluence with the River Witham between the villages of Aubourn and South Hykeham.[6][7] {{Location map+ |Lincolnshire| relief = 1 | caption = {{small|Map showing Lincoln, and the course of the Brant and locations along its length in Lincolnshire}} | places ={{Location map~ |Lincolnshire | label = Gelston | background = |marksize=7 | position = bottom | lat = 52.997 | long = -0.6411 }}{{Location map~ |Lincolnshire | label = Lincoln | background = darkseagreen|marksize=7 | lat = 53.2281 | long = -0.5438 | position = left }}{{Location map~ |Lincolnshire | label = Brandon | background = |marksize=7 | position = left | lat = 53.02 | long = -0.65 }}{{Location map~ |Lincolnshire | label = Brant Broughton | background = | lat = 53.0777 | long = -0.6325 | marksize = 7 }}{{Location map~ |Lincolnshire | label = Mouth | background = |marksize=7 | lat = 53.1623 | long = -0.5772 }} | float = left | background = white | width = 270 }}{{clear left}} References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://data.gov.uk/dataset/wfd-surface-water-classification-status-and-objectives|title=Water Framework Directive Surface Water Classification Status and Objectives 2012 csv files|publisher=Environment-agency.gov.uk|accessdate=7 April 2013|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20140224035512/http://data.gov.uk/dataset/wfd-surface-water-classification-status-and-objectives|archivedate=24 February 2014|df=}} {{Rivers and Watercourses of Lincolnshire}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://nrfa.ceh.ac.uk/data/station/meanflow/30033|title=30033 - Brant at Brant Broughton|work=The National River Flow Archive|publisher=Centre for Ecology & Hydrology|accessdate= 4 May 2013}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://nrfa.ceh.ac.uk/data/station/meanflow/30033|title=30033 - Brant at Brant Broughton|work=The National River Flow Archive|publisher=Centre for Ecology & Hydrology|accessdate= 4 May 2013}} 4. ^[https://books.google.com/books?id=BUNTxplv8Y0C The Book of English Rivers: An Account of the Rivers of England and Wales, Particularizing Their Respective Courses, Their Most Striking Scenery, and the Chief Places of Interest on Their Banks], Samuel Lewis, p46,Original 1855, {{ISBN|9781108025492}}, accessed 5 May 2013 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.loveden.org.uk/brandonhistory.html|title=Brandon History|publisher=loveden.org.uk |accessdate=7 May 2013}} 6. ^{{cite web| url=http://maps.environment-agency.gov.uk/wiyby/wiybyController?topic=wfd_rivers&layerGroups=default&lang=_e&ep=map&scale=7&x=420369.21874999994&y=349517.93750000005#x=494783&y=345999&lg=1,7,8,9,5,6,&scale=5|title=Environment Agency What's in your Backyard |publisher=Environment Agency |accessdate=5 May 2013}} 7. ^{{cite book|last=Ordnance Survey|title=Lincoln & Newark-on-Trent|publisher=Ordnance Survey|authorlink=Ordnance Survey|year=2009|series=OS Landranger Map Series|isbn=9780319227213}} 1 : Rivers of Lincolnshire |
