Brailes

Brailes is a civil parish about east of Shipston-on-Stour in Warwickshire, England. It includes the two villages of Lower and Upper Brailes but is often referred to as one village as the two adjoin each other. The parish includes the village of Winderton about northeast of Brailes, and the deserted medieval village of Chelmscote about north of Brailes.
The parish is bounded to the east by Ditchedge Lane and Beggars' Lane, which are an historic ridgeway that also form part of the county boundary with Oxfordshire. The northeastern boundary is a minor road, part of which follows the course of a Roman road. The River Stour forms part of the southern boundary, and another part is formed by Sutton Brook, a tributary of the Stour. To the west, north and the remainder of the south the parish is bounded by field boundaries.
Brailes is surrounded by hills. Upper Brailes is on the side of Brailes Hill, which at high is the second-highest point in Warwickshire. The east side of the village is bordered by Mine Hill, which is over high and is topped by a television mast, and Holloway Hill, up which the B4035 road runs towards Banbury. Between Holloway Hill and the Oxfordshire Boundary the B4035 passes near the top of Gallow Hill, which is high.
==History==
Castle Hill Motte in the middle of the village is a natural knoll that was made higher in the Norman era to form the motte of a motte-and-bailey castle. Its construction may have been ordered by Roger de Beaumont, who was Earl of Warwick 1123–53.〔 Earthworks of both the motte and the bailey survive, and the site is a Scheduled Monument.〔
Brailes was the home of William de Brailes, a 13th-century medieval painter of illuminated manuscripts. Of the many artists who painted such manuscripts, William is one of only two whose name has been recorded.
On the other side of Stocks Hill is Brailes House, former home to the Sheldon family. The Sheldons have held the manor of Brailes since 1547.
