BRAMSHILL (Great and Little), two tythings in Eversley parish, Hants; 3½ miles N by E of Winchfield. Real property, £1,428. Pop., 154. Houses, 32. Bramshill House was built by the eleventh Lord Zouch, as a residence for Prince Henry, son of James I.; is now the seat of Sir William Cope; and exhibits interesting features, both external and internal, of the age in which it was erected. The grounds around it are extensive and picturesque. Abbot, archbishop of Canterbury, accidentally killed a man while shooting in the park; and the Duke of Wellington often came hither on visits from Stratfieldsaye.
