The first thing that your escort will probably notice about Brill is the fact that it is perched on top of a steep sided hill, surrounded by the Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire flat land. The name means hill. Brill is a modern abbreviation of Bre-hyll. Both syllables of Bre-hyll mean hill, the first is Celtic, and the second Anglo-Saxon. It is fascinating to think about how being on top of a hill has shaped the history of Brill.
But Brill has not always been an easy place in which to live. In the past, the relative isolation lead to the burden of poverty and unemployment. Today's cyclists enjoy the challenge of getting up Brill Hill, but how many stop to think how that same ride must have felt to a villager early this century at the end of a fruitless 20 mile trip to find work. And how many children rolling down the grassy banks of our Common realise that their playground is the result of centuries of back-breaking digging for clay for the making of Brill bricks.
Windmills have been a feature of Brill since at least the 13th century. Two fields adjacent to the Thame road are named Milldene and Millpiece, signifying connections with the earliest siting of windmills in Brill around 1250.
The present windmill on Brill Common was probably erected sometime in the 1680s. Although not quite the oldest windmill in England, it is one of the best preserved of the dozen or so 17th century 'post-mills' still standing. A post-mill is a mill in which the whole structure revolves around a central post in order to face the wind.
When Brill windmill last operated it was working two sets of stones, a pair of French burr stones for milling wheat, and a pair of peak stones for milling barley. When operative, the mill had four sails, each 27 feet long and 5 feet wide. Since construction, the mill has probably been operated by only six millers. Brill Windmill is open to the public on the first Sunday of each month throughout the summer.
