Brockley Hill

Brockley Hill, Stanmore, on the outskirts of North London, England, rises to above sea level. The road leading over it is also named Brockley Hill. The area is associated with the archaeological site called ''Sulloniacis''. Its most prominent building is the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital.
==Etymology==
In its present form the name dates from the 16th century; the earlier form was ''Brokhole(s)'': 'badger-holes', from the old English and Celtic word ''Brock''.〔Gover JEB, Mawer and Stenton, ''The place-names of Middlesex apart from the City of London''. Nottingham, reprinted 1994 (English Place-Name Society volume XVIII).〕 The sandy soil of the hill-top is more attractive to burrowing animals like badgers, than the heavy London clay of the surrounding areas.〔Bromehead CEN, 1925, ''The Geology of North London''. London, HMSO, p.13.〕
