Etymology
The brook takes its name from a lost vill Padston or at least from the same man who left his name to a tun and to the neighbouring burna . The pers. name Padda is well established.Here we have a strong form of it. Hence 'Padd 's farm and stream.' The initial sp for p seems to be a purely modern corruption. For Elde v. Burcot, supra 338.
