About Picket Post
Picket Post rests on the eastern edge of the New Forest, a place where the ancient woodland begins to yield to more open heathland, its air carrying the subtle scent of pine and damp earth. It lies 4.4 km east of Ringwood (from Ringwood: bearing 79°T, OS grid SU 191 060), and is situated east of Hangersley village. The very name hints at a boundary, a marker perhaps for those travelling through the wilder expanses of Hampshire. Here, the light often falls in long, slanted shafts through the trees, illuminating the mossy bark of ancient oaks and the delicate ferns unfurling at their feet. Picket Post is a quiet crossroads, a point where the deep green heart of the forest meets the wider world, its character shaped by the gentle flow of nearby streams and the vast, breathing presence of the New Forest National Park.
