The Gatehouse website record for Bradley Greenbyre, Bardon Mill

In the civil parish of Bardon Mill. In the historic county of Northumberland (Modern Authority of Northumberland, 1974 county of Northumberland).

In the north eatern corner of the desertered village of Bradley are the walls of the bastle stand to a maximum height of 0.8m. The bastle is attached to a large roughly rectangular enclosure containing the remains of post-medieval ploughing. The site of a ruined bastle in this location is named on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map of 1866 as 'Greenbyer'. The stone foundations of what are thought to be a second bastle lie some 30m to the east of the first. They measure 7.6 meters east-west by 5.5m with walls standing up to 0.3m high. King and Dodds mention one bastle and presume it was either at Bradley Hall or Bradley Hall Farm.

The Ordnance Survey Map Grid Reference is NY77896757
