Until the end of the 18th century, there was a continuous line of salt works along the coastline from Lymington to Hurst Spit, making it the biggest area of sea salt production in the country. The salt workings (variously called salt pans or salterns) included evaporating ponds, boiling houses, wind pumps and docks for transporting coal and salt. The salt trade died in the early 1800s.
