The Bras de Bronne (French pronunciation: [bʁa bʁɔn]; sometimes spelled Bras de Brosne) is a small river in northern France whose 10.8 km (6.7 mi) course crosses the departement of the Pas-de-Calais.[1] Its source is at the hamlet of Etreuille, near the village of Saint-Michel-sous-Bois. It flows through the communes of Humbert, Sempy, Aix-en-Issart, Marant, Marenla and joins the river Canche at Marles-sur-Canche.
In winter, it is fed by an even smaller river at the commune of Quilen.
There's an ancient watermill at Sempy.
