Knightwood Oak
The oldest tree in the New Forest
Located between the edge of the River Test and the New Forest National Park boundary Marchwood is a small town that has built up around the military port situated here. There is a yacht club on the water front and a public footpath from there to the village of Eling which is good for a dog walk. A couple of country pubs and small shopping precinct along with the C of E church. Marchwood is a bit more industrial but still has its charm.
