Bradford Leigh is a hamlet in Wiltshire, England. It lies in the parish of South Wraxall, about 1.3 miles (2.1 km) northeast of the centre of the town of Bradford on Avon.
The area was formerly a tithing of the parish of Bradford on Avon.[1] A Methodist chapel was built in 1892, belonging to the Methodist church at Bradford on Avon; the chapel closed in the mid-20th century.[2]
The local pub, the Plough, closed in 2014 and was offered for sale in 2015.
