[edit] Local mythology

There have been some rather strange and mysterious rumours and suspicions surrounding this small hamlet that, although none being backed up by any reliable sources except those who "witnessed" the events, make some interesting reading. The attempted alien landing of 2000 seen by the farmer when a circle of lights surrounded his farm proceeding to then propel themselves back into space for an unknown reason. The Cat Killer who is often held responsible for the deaths and disappearances of many of the local population's feline pets. The Black Cat is a popular sighting in Brockhollands fuelled by the rumours surrounding the rest of the Forest of Dean that there is an escaped Panther, or family of Panthers, roaming the country dispatching sheep and farmers alike. Various ghosts inhabit the area, including that of a burglar who was killed escaping into the garden of number 14, breaking his neck, and that of the murder victim discovered in the forest in the year of 1999. Other tales surround the area bombed during World War Two when a German bomber attempting to dispose of unused bombs dropped one on what is now the site of a fishing farm utilizing the crater left by the device.
