I was right about Brilley having lost its school. However, Herefordshire Council have offered the old school field to the village to be used as a village green. The Village Hall commitee and the Parish Council are leading the efforts to raise the money to buy the field from the Council, and on the 15th they had a Grand Promise Auction.
I saw Jo from Brilley the other day, and she said it went very well - and some of the Promises!
A week in a town house in Marrakesh
a walking tour in the Willandra Lakes World Heritage Area of Australia
a boat trip round the islands of Pembrokeshire (that one went for between £300 and £400, I believe)
an introduction to gliding
half a fresh lamb
the opportunity to sail in a 1904 Bristol Pilot Cutter boat
and much more!
They're a generous lot in Brilley.

Wow, indeed that's very generous! I particularly like the walking tour and the week in Marrakesh.
