I have found and old brolly in the outside shed of my Victorian cottage. The brolly it is quite dirty and tatty but It has the most elegant swan neck and head handle. It has markings "BRIGG and SON London Paris" on it. Someone has suggested the black handle may be solid silver. Any idea what it might be worth?

We can't speculate on this. Take it to a professional for valuation. Condition is all important.
And be carefull about cleaning it, sometimes the patina on silver can actually add to the value.
Do not clean the handle
Take a photo and send to appropriate department in Sotheby's or Christies. Get them on line.
Is there a hallmark on the handle?.
