In days long gone the River Bray was forded at a small settlement and thus the village name was formed as Bray-Ford, and is still pronounced that way to this day. The ford became a part of a well-established pack horse route and drover’s trail from Porlock to Barnstaple. By the mid 17th century, Brayford was on the most important highway across Exmoor, from Dunster via Exford, Simonsbath and Kensford Cross (Kinsford Gate) to Barnstaple. The ford was replaced by a bridge, widened in the 1920s, and now this gives easy access for residents and visitors to enjoy the sights of Exmoor.
