Places to see in ( Lyndhurst - UK ) • Lyndhurst is a large village and civil parish situated in the New Forest National Park in Hampshire, England. Serving as the administrative capital of the New Forest, Lyndhurst is a popular tourist attraction, despite local traffic congestion, with many independent shops, art galleries, cafés, museums, pubs and hotels. • Known as the Capital of the New Forest , Lyndhurst houses the New Forest District Council. The first mention of Lyndhurst was in the Domesday Book of 1086 under the name 'Linhest'. The Court of Verderers sits in the Queens House in Lyndhurst. The church of St. Michael and All Angels was built in the 1860s, and contains a fresco by Lord Leighton and stained-glass windows by Charles Kempe, William Morris, Edward Burne-Jones and others. Local folklore records Lyndhurst as the site of a Dragon-slaying, and as being haunted by the ghost of Richard Fitzgeorge de Stacpoole, 1st Duc de Stacpoole. Alice Liddell, the inspiration for Alice in Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, is buried there. • A royal park was attached to the manor of Lyndhurst from a very early date. It was unusual for being a King's Park within a King's Forest. In 1299 it covered an area of 500 acres (202 ha), the profits from the honey gathered there amounting to 2 shillings per annum. It was actively worked during the 14th and 15th centuries when payments were made for the fencing and repairing of the palings. The old Park of Lyndhurst is where the Parkhill Hotel now stands, the new park being on the A337 Brockenhurst road. • The village is the administrative capital of the New Forest, with the district council based in the village. The Court of Verderers sits in the Queen's House in Lyndhurst. The local headquarters of the Forestry Commission, the body that handles the maintenance of the softwood plantations, forest roads and paths, and controlling the spread of invasive plants, such as rhododendrons and gorse is also based in the Queen's House. • The church of St. Michael and All Angels is a major landmark, built of many different colours of brick, on one of the highest points in the village. Other major landmarks include Glasshayes (also known as the Lyndhurst Park Hotel, and haunted, according to local tradition, by Richard Fitzgeorge de Stacpoole, 1st Duc de Stacpoole) and the adjacent Bolton's Bench, a picturesque hill to the east of the village which, according to local folklore, was originally the corpse of a dragon; and a row of much photographed thatched cottages on the road to the neighbouring hamlet of Emery Down. Lyndhurst is also home to the New Forest Centre, which includes the New Forest Museum and New Forest Gallery. • Lyndhurst is notable in English folklore for being the supposed location of a dragon-slaying. The local tradition is that a dragon had his den at Burley Beacon in Burley.
