Fun facts about Buckler’s Hard

A former ship-building village on the River Beaulieu in the New Forest.

Attractions include a maritime (航海) museum telling the story of warships built for Nelson’s navy and other moments in seafaring history.

Costumed volunteers are on hand to answer questions and entertain children with, say, a game of coits or explain how families lived in the Shipwright’s Cottage. In summer hop on a boat for a cruise(漫游)up the river(extra charge).
