Heritage Open Day: Visit the Buckler's Hard Museum to discover the fascinating stories of this historic maritime village, nestled on the edge of the Beaulieu River in the New Forest, including a talk on Nelson's HMS Agamemnon by Mary Montagu-Scott. Buckler's Hard, on the Beaulieu Estate, is a village steeped in history. From its origins in the 13th century under the ownership of Cistercian monks to its celebrated shipbuilding era, when vessels for Nelson's Navy were built here, the village has played a remarkable role in Britain's maritime heritage. Today, visitors from around the world come to discover its stories through the museum and historic cottage displays.
