Bucklebury and Brandy Hall
Bucklebury lay on the east bank of the Brandywine in Buckland, built on the lower slopes of Buck Hill surrounding Brandy Hall. The hard ground on the west bank was narrow, with no room for a village. The Ferry Lane ran down from the Marish causeway to its landing on the west bank; on the east side it curved through Bucklebury to join the Buckland road on high ground behind Buck Hill. Great white bollards (anchor posts) on either bank anchored a rope-driven ferry suitable for one wagon and team. The ferrymen all lived in Bucklebury; the service normally closed at sundown, but important folk from Brandy Hall could get the use of it at night and even roust out the ferrymen if they felt the need.
