The East and West Branches of the Silvermine come together at Browns Reservoir, at the point where New York State juts eastward into Connecticut near Bald Hill and Kents Pond in Wilton.

The West Branch arrives from the north and passes over an old mill dam just before entering the reservoir. The East Branch comes down a steep slope from the east, at the end of Vista Road. Just a mile upstream, the East Branch is joined by Silver Spring Brook.
