LOCATION
Brill is a compound of two words, the first part being Celtic for hill and the second part (hyll) being old English.

The village sits on a hill and has commanding views over Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire and is set in an area of outstanding natural beauty. There is a pretty High Street and a village green with a seventeenth century windmill that is one of the most photographed windmills in the country.

Brill has a colourful history and it is thought that the Saxon kings had a palace there that was a favourite residence of Edward the Confessor. During the Civil War King Charles established a garrison at Brill, which was unsuccessfully attacked by the Parliamentarians, led by Hampden the famous patriot.

There are a number of clubs and groups in the village including scouts, cricket and football teams, a branch of the W.I, and lots of activities in the Memorial Hall. For day to needs Brill has two convenience stores and a post office, an award winning butcher, and there are also two well regarded pub/restaurants.
