Exploring New Forest Heritage

Court Lodge residents enjoyed a fascinating morning learning more about the history and heritage of the New Forest.

Through photographs, stories and information, they explored some of the area’s best-known places, including Buckler’s Hard, the Rufus Stone and Balmer Lawn. The talk prompted plenty of conversation, with residents sharing their own knowledge and experiences of the New Forest.

It also sparked ideas for future minibus outings, with several places now on the list to visit in person. A morning of local history, familiar landmarks and new places to explore.
