Iford Bridge is a historic bridge that crosses the River Stour, connecting Christchurch and Bournemouth. It is a Grade II listed building by English Heritage. Easternmost section: Dates back to the late 18th or early 19th century and is constructed of red brick with stone coping. Middle section: Built in the mid-17th century, it is made of ashlar stone and features four round-headed arches. This section is particularly old, with some sources indicating it dates back to 1184. Westernmost section: Also from the late 18th century, it complements the middle section's architectural style.

Hengistbury Head is a dramatic headland located in Dorset, England, jutting into the English Channel between Bournemouth and Mudeford. It's a place of international importance due to its rich archaeology, diverse wildlife, and unique geology. Declared a Local Nature Reserve in 1990, it forms part of the Christchurch Harbour Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). It also holds various other designations like Special Area of Conservation and Special Protection Area, highlighting its importance for wildlife.

There’s a hidden flight of steps down the cliff side at this location.

At the Quay you will find several places to eat and drink as well as areas to enjoy a picnic. It is a great place to take a gentle stroll next to the waters edge and watch all the busy activities taking place. For children and families, crabbing is very popular from the quayside. You can buy nets, buckets and bait from the shop at the end of the Quay if you don't have your own. There is also a children's play area to let the little ones burn off some energy. The Quay is a popular sailing and windsurfing destination throughout the year and holds a number of dinghy championships. Many other events are also held here including seafood festivals, fun days, arts festivals and the annual Lifeboat Week.

The sand and shingle beach below the cliffs is generally fairly quiet and remains largely undeveloped. At low tide a good expanse of sand is exposed. The beach can be accessed either from Highcliffe Castle or by taking the mile-long path from Friar’s Cliff Beach. For much of the length of the beach a raised promenade runs along the base of the cliffs. Dogs are allowed on beach, but best on a lead, also a car park is nearby with room for 200 vehicles.

Views all across the new forest, Christchurch and even the isle of wight here.
