Brill is a village and civil parish in Aylesbury Vale district in Buckinghamshire, England, close to the boundary with Oxfordshire. It is about 4 miles (6.4 km) north-west of Long Crendon and 7 miles (11 km) south-east of Bicester. It has a Royal charter to hold a weekly market, but has not done so for many years.
Brill's name is a combination of Brythonic and Anglo Saxon words for 'hill' (Brythonic breg and Anglo Saxon hyll). In the reign of Edward the Confessor it was a town called Bruhella.
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. King Edward the Confessor had a palace here. There is evidence that Henry II, John, Henry III and Stephen all held court at the palace.[citation needed] It remained in place until the time of Charles I, who turned the building into a Royalist garrison in the English Civil War. This led the Parliamentarian John Hampden to destroy it in 1643.

Plot: Rose had hoped to marry Brill and hers was true love, but the sister became Mrs. J. Brill and Rose made the entry in her diary, then fell into a restless sleep. Six months of marriage found Mrs. Brill seeking some other attractions beside the hearth and she resumed her music, while the husband as a chemist was busy in research. A friend drummer thought he saw a business opportunity for himself in Mrs. Brill's ability and gave her all the assistance and encouragement he could, which caused the wife to forget her husband. This preyed so on his mind that he became forgetful, and, and the wife was leaving one evening against his wishes, he made an error which caused an explosion and resulted in blindness. The wife was so far advanced as to make public appearances professionally, and in her selfishness, she killed her husband's chance of recovery at the critical moment; but this did not matter when a big offer to tour was made her, and she accepted leaving and probably breaking her marriage ties forever. This gave Rose, whose attention and devotion to the husband had been constant, every reason to feel that for herself - while there's life - she had every reason to hope.
