Millyford Bridge walks
progress on the minor road near Millyford Bridge -
New Forest walks are always likely to provide surprises!
Located 3.25 kilometres (2 miles) west of Lyndhurst on the minor road leading from Emery Down to Bolderwood and Linwood, Millyford Bridge carries that minor road over Highland Water, an attractive gravel-bottomed New Forest stream.
Two walks are described here. Both start in the Millyford Bridge, Forestry Commission car park and pass through magnificent woodland landscapes.
Holmhill Inclosure is a little to the north-west of Millyford Bridge. First inclosed - set aside to grow trees - way back in 1670, the originally inclosed area was largely taken into a later inclosure of the same name created in 1815. Few trees from the original inclosure remain, although the related, substantial surrounding earthen wood-bank is in many places still evident.
