Gosh Brill is next village and one where we almost bought a house. Yes it did have a hunting lodge possibly a small palace. I wonder what it was like then. Today it is a large village in a lovely setting that looks over some fabulous countryside. The one time I went up in a balloon we came down on Brill Hill just as a hunt passed through! Still hunting territory.
