- In the opening paragraph Mansfield makes clear that Miss Brill is in the Jardins Publiques and, therefore, somewhere in France: in a small town, it seems, since the Sunday band concert is a big feature of local life. In paragraph 6 we learn that the sea is visible from the park. We also know that the season is autumn. Miss Brill has taken her fur out of its box for the first time in a long while. The trees are covered with “yellow leaves down drooping” (par. 6). A chill in the air foreshadows the chill of Miss Brill’s dashed spirits at the end of the story.
