Wordless Wednesday - Bucklers Hard.

 

On the banks of the Beaulieu River, in the heart of the New Forest, you will find the peaceful haven of Buckler's Hard which remains untouched by the passage of time.

Once a thriving shipbuilding village where ships for Nelson's fleet at Trafalgar were built, now Buckler's Hard is a tranquil haven, perfect for escaping the hustle and bustle of modern life.

Amble down the high street to watch the boats sailing by on the Beaulieu River or, if you're feeling more energetic, follow the scenic 2 mile footpath between Buckler’s Hard and Beaulieu.

I am joining Sandee at Comedy Plus for the blog hop.

Bucklers Hard.

While we were staying in the New Forest we visited the old ship building village of Bucklers Hard, and after walking around the village and museum we took a river trip.
