Beautiful view across to West side of Isle of Wight and The Needles.

The "Fordingbridge Bridge," known as the Great Bridge, is a historic seven-arched medieval stone bridge in the town of Fordingbridge, Hampshire, England, over the River Avon. While the current structure dates from various periods, including significant 19th-century widening, the original medieval bridge was built before 1252. It remains a prominent landmark, with views of the bridge best enjoyed from the nearby park or The George pub.  

Starting point for a nice bike ride along the beach.

Super fast when dry

Brilliant cut through of the main road

Gateway into the New Forest from the South. Wootton Bridge is also a nice picnic spot next to shallow water. Also gateway onto the old railway gravel track leading to Castleman Trailway in Ringwood.

£1 each way for a single person, I love these quirky forms of crossing. Between Sandbanks and Studland.

Hire a bike or use your second bike. Don't use your expensive nice bike along here. Reason one. High chance of it being stolen. The promenade these days has a bad element there. reason two. Sand.... Oh so much sand. And it can ruin your bikes mechanisms before you get the chance to clean it

Braggers Lane is a charming, tree-lined road bordered by grasslands and woodlands. At its northeastern end it opens up to beautiful views overlooking the grounds of Avon Tyrrell Outdoor Activity Centre.

A place for a rest if you need it

Useful signpost and a choice of directions

Quiet, scenic country lanes at Furzehill.

The end of the line. You can either catch a ferry to the otherside or turn back.... that's it... no alternatives. 🤣

A memorial to a Red Arrows pilot who died following a display at the Bournemouth Air Festival. The 33-year-old pilot died when his Hawk T1 jet crashed after completing a display at the annual festival in 2011.

Christchurch Castle is a Norman motte and bailey castle in Christchurch, Dorset, England. The earliest stonework has been dated to 1160. The castle's site is inside the old Saxon burh dominating the River Avon's lowest crossing.The castle is believed to stand on the site of an earlier wooden fort built in 924 following the capture of the town ramparts in 901 by King Æthelwold of Wessex, and subsequently fortified with a motte by King Edward the Elder.[2] After the Norman Conquest of 1066 the castle's defences were strengthened by the addition of a ditch and bailey surrounded by a wooden palisade. The wooden fort was eventually replaced with a stone keep. The Norman castle was a strategic defensive structure controlled by the King's constable until King Henry I granted it as the caput of a feudal barony to his cousin Richard de Redvers, feudal baron of Plympton, Devon. While the Saxon defences had been against outside threats such as Viking raiders, the Norman fortress was more concerned with subduing the local populace. It was also a useful base for enforcing the New Forest Laws. The castle controlled the harbour and inland access via the Rivers Avon and Stour. The earliest masonry has been dated to c. 1160, and there is documentary evidence of the castle existing in c. 1130. Richard de Redvers is often named as the castle's first builder, although there is little documentary evidence of this, and this castle may well have been on the site of the earlier Saxon castle. The castle was rebuilt by Baldwin de Redvers to resist King Stephen during the civil war with the Empress Matilda in 1147. A great tower was built probably around 1300. The castle again saw action during the Civil War of 1642–1651. The Parliamentarians were allowed to take control of the castle in 1644. The Royalists laid siege to it for 3 days, demolishing houses on the corner of Church Street and Castle Street in order to site their cannons. The Royalists were unable to take the castle and Oliver Cromwell, fearing such a powerful stronghold, ordered it to be slighted in 1652. The castle is now in ruins; a couple of the keep walls remain and the remains of a rectangular moat.

Road bridge over River Avon. Erected in the C15 or C16; repaired and strengthened over the centuries, including widening around 1900 and the erection of footbridge.

In the summer it is very busy and in the winter often covered in sand. Unless you want to see the pier it is usually easier to avoid the area and go through the town.

The forest is beautiful, full of so much beauty!

I can confirm, after several revisits that their sausages are still amazing. Their cafe is top notch, friendly staff, fast service, and a nice vibe with lots of place indoors and outdoors to sit. Hockey's Hungry Breakfast is a winner.
