Immediately below the depopulated village of Stretton Grandison its tributary, the river or brook named the Lodon, joins it.

It then flows west, past Yarkhill and the farmstead or locality of Prior's Frome before its confluence with the Lugg (which skirts the north side of Hereford here) at Hampton Bishop about 2 miles (3.2 km) before the latter joins the Wye.

The valley lies in the Old Red Sandstone[1] formations of this part of Herefordshire, revealing much evidence of the region's geological past.

[2] It has left many exposures of Devonian and late Silurian sandstones and mudstones, and has created a landscape that demonstrates the effects of successive phases of glaciofluvial erosion.
