Meanings
- alternativeAlternative form of By Brook, a river in Wiltshire and Somerset.
Although it lies about 17 miles from the nearest coast, the village was transformed to look like a seaport for the film version of Dr Doolittle. A harbour wall and jetty were built on the cheerful little Bybrook, which sparkles along beside a row of 17th-century cottages.
