Before 1866, Playhatch formed part of the Oxfordshire section of Sonning civil parish.^{[citation needed]} Berry Brook starts close to the Redgrave-Pinsent Rowing Lake to the southwest, running northeast through the River Thames floodplain past Playhatch, under the B478 Playhatch Road near the Sonning Works, before joining the river at Hallsmead Ait.
