New Forest Pony Owners Plea to Drivers

#add3minutes to your journey for the winter

New Forest commoners and organisations are appealing to local drivers to slow down as the clocks go back, to prevent the usual huge rise in animal deaths and injuries in the longer nights.

Nearly 100 free-roaming animals were killed or injured in the New Forest last year.

A quarter of these – 25 animals - were killed or injured on just four key routes in the evenings in the two months after the clocks go back. About three quarters of the accidents involved local drivers.

Now New Forest commoners, the families who own the animals that maintain the Forest, have teamed up with other organisations to focus efforts on reducing accidents this winter. They are asking locals to add just three minutes to their journeys and drive slowly across the Forest.

Welcome to the Parish of Beaulieu

Beaulieu Parish, located in the south-east corner of the New Forest National Park, is an unspoilt area at the head of the tidal reaches of the Beaulieu River. Beaulieu village, itself, centring around the high street, has not changed very much over the years: the village centre has remained compact with red brick houses consisting of a variety of shops, homes and businesses.

There has been little outlying development in recent times, although many may notice modern uses of old buildings. Beaulieu has a primary school, post office, village hall and parish church and cricket pitch.

There are approximately 350 properties in the parish, the majority of which are privately owned. The 7000 acre Beaulieu Estate covers much of the parish and the Montagu family have lived here since 1538.

BEAULIEU PARISH COUNCIL ANNUAL ASSEMBLY APRIL 19th 2018.

This year I regret to start on a sad note but we have lost two regular attendees of our meetings. One was John Beaumont, a parishioner, who died in May and was always keen to have his say during public participation.

We also lost a great friend and champion of our parish. He never tired in listening to us and was immensely helpful in helping with projects and funding. Always polite and
