Brill is a village and civil parish in west Buckinghamshire, England, close to the border with Oxfordshire.
[3] The manor of Brill was the administration centre for the royal hunting Forest of Bernwood and was for a long time a property of the Crown.
It remained in place until the time of Charles I, who turned the building into a Royalist garrison in the English Civil War.
[9] Scott extended the chancel eastwards[9] by about 6 feet (1.8 m) and added a new Gothic Revival east window.
[8] He added the south aisle and porch at the same time but its east and west windows are re-used Perpendicular Gothic ones, probably dating from early in the 16th century.
[8] Brill is also known for its windmill, last owned and used by the Pointer and Nixie family who also baked bread in their house in the village.
By the 2000s water ingress and weathering had caused timber decay to the extent that the structure's integrity was described as "At risk".
[11] The Brill Windmill Management Group was established in 2007 to help plan a restoration project and to seek the necessary funds.
With funding from English Heritage and WREN, full repair and preservation work was completed by July 2009.
In 1935, on the creation of the LPTB, control was transferred to it from the Metropolitan and Great Central Joint Committee which had taken it over in 1906; the whole branch was closed on 30 November 1935.
